SAND

I’ve been waiting for the tide to come and carry me out to sea
But the tide came and went and I’m still waiting
And all I wanted was time to remember
And all I needed was time to think
And here I stand counting grains of sand
As they dissolve beneath my toes.

Oh I’m so confused I don’t know what I need to do
Everything I ever knew is sand

Every day another wave escapes
My intentions on the crest
My convictions are inverted
Each day they’re different from the last
And if you ask me I will not answer
There’s no explaining where time has gone
I carved each day out of stone
Still they eroded to the sea

Oh I’m so confused I don’t know what I need to do
Everything I ever knew is sand
