Each grain of sand beneath the sea
You have no faith in a dream
Fade into the landspace, unseem
In a field of weeds, killing time
A winding river rushes by
All the while you seem to be going blind
A cold numb grey in your eyes
Breathe in, breathe deep
A lifetime is too long to sleep
Staring at lightning won't keep you warm
You hear the thunder, but can't get out of the storm
Growing weak and thin
This has to end where it begins
Waiting for winter's first snow
To cover your tracks, so no-one will know
That you ever lived, or ever lied
You wouldn't give, never tried
No words worth air ever sound
From a flightless bird, bound to the ground
Breathe in, breathe deep
A lifetime is too long to sleep
Staring at lightning won't keep you warm
You hear the thunder, but can't get out of the storm
You don't believe what you don't see Each grain of sand beneath the sea You have no faith in a dream Fade into the landspace, unseem In a field of weeds, killing time A winding river rushes by All the while you seem to be going blind A cold numb grey in your eyes Breathe in, breathe deep A lifetime is too long to sleep Staring at lightning won't keep you warm You hear the thunder, but can't get out of the storm Growing weak and thin This has to end where it begins Waiting for winter's first snow To cover your tracks, so no-one will know That you ever lived, or ever lied You wouldn't give, never tried No words worth air ever sound From a flightless bird, bound to the ground Breathe in, breathe deep A lifetime is too long to sleep Staring at lightning won't keep you warm You hear the thunder, but can't get out of the storm Explain Request ×
