Stranger In Sand

I turned down my mind today

Speaking in shades of gray

I followed a man of no expression

I heard what he had to say

I saw the devils word

Some through the beaks of birds

The road was a winding silent serpent

Sweetest sound I ever heard

Time is moving slowly, thickening the sand

There must be a cure, it's out here, I'm sure

Does anybody understand?

Time is yours if you want it, kill it

Spin it in the sand

You think it's just 'cause you bought it

But it's slipping from your hand

Well, life is made of a million moments

Catch one if you can

You try so hard but you never own it

Stranger in the sand

I saw the ragged thief

The rock he was underneath

He spoke to the world of consequences

Crowds cried in disbelief

Who has the right to sing?

Every living thing

There are no words a ghost may tell to

Eliminate your suffering

Time is moving slowly, thickening the sand

There must be a cure, it's out here, I'm sure

Does anybody understand?

What do you think about it now?

What do you think about it now?

What do you think about it now?

What do you think about it now, now?

I turned down my mind today
