Sands of Time ft. Calcos

about

So, most songs are borne of emotion. This one is no exception. After time and time again of not being able to get a job I was frustrated and vented it into the lyrics for this song.

Basch helped me with the strings. Calcos really assisted as well providing his smooth silky voice.

lyrics

Calcos:
When time flows but leaves you behind
left with scars in your mind
Mercy doesn't leave a trace
You feel like you're simply a disgrace

External forces don't care who people are
The wheels of fate just do their part

Cyril:
The pattering of a sticky rain
The sound fills you with disdain
For yourself, you fight tears of shame
You lose strength, cry against the window frame

External forces don't care who people are
The wheels of fate just do their part,
Tearing us all apart

Calcos & Cyril:
With all the pain
The memories remain
It doesn't mean that we're not just grains
Flowing in the sands of time

Cyril:
Oh, we can never see what keeps us alive
A strong will teaches us to survive
Doubting only tells us to die

No, We don't measure fate, we keep track of time
Wasting away counting our dimes
We can't tell a truth from a lie

We watch the river flow leave souls behind
Feeling only scars in our minds
We wish we could go back just to find
Our dreams that we flew in the sky

Calcos:
But still...
External forces don't care who people are
The wheels of fate just do their part,
Tearing us all apart

Calcos & Cyril:
Still there's pain
And memories remain
It doesn't mean that we're not just grains
Flowing in the sands of time

Don't you see?
The world can't hear your pleas
Just keep your hope;
dare to take a stand; flow against sands of time
