The Pale Sand

When they find out that you can’t pay
When they get desperate they’ll send you away
I’ve seen it happen before, I’ll see it happen again
I’ll watch them open the door, I’ll see them hold your hand
If you want to be part of their crowd
Don’t bring your head up, don’t talk to loud
Pretty faces never attack,
They keep their knives in your back
Part of the pale sand
This is the water over my head
This is my problem until i’m dead
This was my body covered in waves
This is my hatred stretched out for days
If you go strange in Normaltown
Don’t lift your voice up, Keep your head down
With nothing left I’ll turn to the sea,
And wait for the waves to take me
Part of the pale sand
I had to keep my name on the shelf
They buy the names for themselves
Part of the pale sand

How embarrassing
To wear the same personality
And you've been down so long
Do you remember to stand at all
A Fire!
A map of all our world
Asks how much goes under foot
To use analogy
To use a lie politely
A Fire!
You want it
Well, you got it
You wanted it
Well, you forgot it
A Fire!
You want it
Well, you got it
You wanted it
Well, you forgot it

Act like you don’t know if they ask you
People only do what they have to
And you’ve got to be steady,
At the ready, waiting for blood
I start my life without the emotions
Chasing horses into the oceans
And I had to be steady,
At the ready, waiting for blood
By the way, I keep the books,
By the way, to burn the pages.
Take the white waters from my body
Take the white waters from my body
Build our sound on another’s vision
Send our words without a decision
And we’ll have to be steady,
At the ready, waiting for blood
By the way, I keep the books,
By the way, to burn the pages.
Take the white waters from my body
Take the white waters from my body
Spend your time on the past if it suits ya
You’ve got nothing to learn from the future
Take the white waters from your body
Take the white waters from your body

He lies with everything he says.
We lie with everything we’ve said.
You can’t teach him
You can’t teach him
You can’t teach him, anyway.
She lies with everything she says.
I lie with everything I said.
But don’t tell anyone
Don’t tell anyone
Don’t tell anyone anyway
Don’t tell anyone
Don’t tell anyone
Don’t tell anyone anyway
You can’t teach him
You can’t teach him
You can’t teach him anyway
Don’t tell anyone
Don’t tell anyone
You cant tell anyone, anyway
Don’t tell anyone I cant feel
Don’t tell anyone I don’t feel
Can’t anyone anyway
You can’t tell anyone
I don’t feel, I can’t feel, anyway.

My heart is beating and getting older
My blood is running and getting colder
Well I get weary and sick of trying
I’m tired of living and scared of dying
Deadboy
There’s a certain kind of cool that comes from living
In a house on Boulevard
But i’m not gonna pay the extra fucking rent
Just so I can tell my friends how my life is hard
Fuck your trust fund
Deadboy
Everybody wants to rule the world
And no-one’s gonna take the time to do it.
If you’re mad, you should know by now
No-one’s gonna pay to listen to it
Everybody wants to see the world
No-one’s gonna take the time to do it.
And if you’re sad, you should know by now
No-one’s gonna stay to listen to it
Well I get weary and sick of trying
I’m tired of living and scared of dying
Deadboy
