Douglas Ray Jaffe - The Valley

Now the kings and queens of arrogance
Are making sure idols are made and blessed
Seems we're too pretentious
And nothing moves or seems to fit
Once you've slipped down
Into the valley of nothingness
They control you and mold you with reason
It makes less and less sense every season
Exhausted from a life of restlessness
They think it's a party and they're all guests
But it's all just a test
Inside the valley of nothingness
Delilah's descendants all hang out there
So does Joan of Arc, with her smoking hair
Caesar's there, knives in his back
Passing Socrates crying in a Pontiac
Yeah, we all get the axe
In the valley of nothingness
Who's gonna make it, who's gonna crack
When the wolves of suppression start to attack
So if you need proof this life's a mess
Join the troops on the brink of emptiness
As they slowly sink down
Into the valley of nothingness
Why is the fog here so strange and tense
Why do they enjoy hanging in suspense
Everyone comes here, but no one leaves
Starving for the truth in humility
But they've all been deceived
By the valley of nothingness
