lyrics

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
