Shadow In The Sand Lyrics & Chords By Little Aida

The skating rink has closed

The empty fields forgive you

All my servants have been disclosed

Now there's no power in the cause

There's no face in the mirror anymore

The captains blew away like paper tigers

The church is falling down

Coz there's more roofs than footprints

This the last bowlegged town

The people who got so strong

Separating belongings

They're all gone like never here

So was it worth it trying to hold forever in your hand

Prepare to stand by, it was free and it was spent

Still you wonder where it went

And now its a shadow in the sand

And there's no babies cryin

Though there is a fever

No tables to wait

Deja vu to Jericho

With fifty arrows in your ego

Can't feel past each nerve to stop the blood flow

Ten memories in the mud

One by one we plucked out our feathers

Laughing like hyenas at the flood

Now there's no North

There's no West

Its beautiful and grotesque

And it would take eternity to mourn for

So was it worth it trying to hold forever in your hand

Prepare to stand by, it was free and it was spent

Still you wonder where it went

And now its a shadow in the sand

The color of the sunset is okay

But I've seen better

Mostly the sky is still the same

But now there's no unknown land left

Or expression on the face of death

And gods of love and war at last divided

Waiting in the waiting room

Swimming in the swimming pool

All of the things we never knew

And now your body will

Become the weeds you tried to kill

My watch it sank beside you in the ocean

So was it worth it trying to hold forever in your hand

Prepare to stand by, it was free and it was spent

Still you wonder where it went

And now its a shadow in the sand
