Sinking Sand
People
 Passing
 Going
 Nowhere
 
 Faces blending into one
 Well I miss you
 So I keep traveling on
 But no place replaces you
 
 My feet are beginning to hurt
 From wandering lonely in the street
 Barely surviving these storms
 Like this hurricane
 
 Like a flash of lightning
 Or the blink of an eye
 You’re gone forever
 No goodbye
 The world keeps moving on
 As I’m standing here
 Left with a heart
 In sinking sand
 
 What am I left with now
 All I have is memories of you
 Going places
 Darkened spaces like the moon
 
 Sleepless nights and pointless days
 My mind is full of things
 Where did it all go?
 All our hopeful dreams
 
 Like a flash of lightning
 Or the blink of an eye
 You’re gone forever
 No goodbye
 The world keeps moving
 As I’m standing here
 Left with a heart
 In sinking sand
 
 
 Tears are falling from the sky
 And I keep asking myself why
 Why did you have to go so soon?
 Why not me instead of you?
 What do I do now?
 What do I do?
 My head is spinning out of control
 I need some answers
 Why are you gone?
 
 Like a flash of lightning
 Or the blink of an eye
 You’re gone forever
 No goodbye
 The world keeps moving
 As I’m standing here
 Left with a heart
 In sinking sand
 
 Like a flash of lightning
 Or the blink of an eye
 You’re gone forever
 No goodbye
 The world keeps moving
 As I’m standing here
 Left with a heart
 In sinking sand
 
 People
 Passing
 Going
 Nowhere
