Sandstone Songtext
I've experienced happiness
If only for a short time
Then the karma, and bad luck
Both old friends of mine
Had set forth
Into this land of perfection
That I'd discovered
On the search for redemption

I was exiled, like a criminal
Battered, and brused
Though, I'd done nothing wrong
It still made front page news
And my possessions, and my home
Were on target to be destroyed
Before I went into hiding
Looking to be employed

Now, it feels like a passing thought
It feels like it never happened
Everything went by so fast
And the memory of all that's passed

I had the world on a string
Where I was appointed king
A stone that turned to sand
And it slipped right through my hands
Now there's nothing left to lose
And nothing more to win
And, no way to trace my steps
Back to where I begin

Now, it looks like I'm coming home
And, I'm coming back to stay
This is the last, and final time
That I try to drift away
So many things have happened
That I don't wish to recall
And, more than anything else
I'd just like to forget it all

I had the world on a string
Where I was appointed king
A stone that turned to sand
And it slipped right through my hands
Now there's nothing left to lose
And nothing more to win
And, no way to trace my steps
Back to where I begin

I had the world on a string
Where I was appointed king
A stone that turned to sand
And it slipped right through my hands
Now there's nothing left to lose
And nothing more to win
And, no way to trace my steps
Back to where I begin

Yeah, there's nothing left to lose
And nothing more to win
And, no way to trace my steps
Back to where I begin
