Sandstone

There is a place in a distant land

Holding all the gravestones of the dreams you've never had

There is a colour somewhere in your head

That looks like all the things you wanna say but never did

And how many times do I have to say

Never cross the boundary between your heartbeat and your brain

Stay on the right end, never stray away

Or you might find yourself caught in a net of love and pain

And there comes a time

Where the bells no longer ring

The town empties out

And the nature creeps back in

I find that I can hold my ground much better when I'm not alone

Because when I feel your gaze on my back I crumble like sandstone

There is a world inside of my mind

That I keep locked inside my head for no one else to find

I keep it buried, hidden all away

But I would break the lock and give it to you any day

Something about you I cannot ignore

I cannot identify my own feelings towards

You feel perfect, more than anything

More so than the moonlight on a night after the rain

And there comes a time

Where the bells no longer ring

The town empties out

And the nature creeps back in

I find that I can hold my ground much better when I'm all alone

Because when I feel your gaze on my back I crumble like sandstone
