Stranger In Sand - Lyrics - Jackie Greene

I turned down my mind today Speaking in shades of gray I followed a man of no expression I heard what he had to say I saw the devils word Some through the beaks of birds The road was a winding silent serpent Sweetest sound I ever heard Time is moving slowly, thickening the sand There must be a cure, it's out here, I'm sure Does anybody understand? Time is yours if you want it, kill it Spin it in the sand You think it's just 'cause you bought it But it's slipping from your hand Well, life is made of a million moments Catch one if you can You try so hard but you never own it Stranger in the sand I saw the ragged thief The rock he was underneath He spoke to the world of consequences Crowds cried in disbelief Who has the right to sing? Every living thing There are no words a ghost may tell to Eliminate your suffering Time is moving slowly, thickening the sand There must be a cure, it's out here, I'm sure Does anybody understand? What do you think about it now? What do you think about it now? What do you think about it now? What do you think about it now, now? I turned down my mind today
