Sand

this is actually my favorite damien song. i think its about someone who you love, who can't quite straighten out their feelings.

I think this song is about a person who's been jaded by their life experiences, but he's in love so he's torn between being optimistic and happy and his old ways of cynicism.

I don't wanna pray for what is not right And I don't wanna beg for what is not mine I don't wanna rock the road between dreams and worldly things I could charge, and I could really try But I don't wanna be the brave one In a senseless fight I, I, I just wanna be here tonight I think those are some of the best lyrics damien has ever written. he is so amazing.

i cant believe there are only 3 comments on sand !!!! its probably my favourite damien song so much emotion and it has a great tempo...you can really tell what hes feeling.

i just listened to it for the first time a few seconds ago.

love at first listen

corrected lyrics:

You keep me in a glass jar sealed with a label You think you know my world Wake up young girl and take a thrust of lust if you must now You've got a lot to learn, yeah Well my love, my life, my work, my time I give them all to you Your hand in mine we walk, we talk in ryhme We go the whole night through yeah

But i'm not a grain of sand I don't care what's written in your hand cause it's bound to change, yeah

Sore, bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold Getting older Wrap it up, rip it up now Have it sold I'm a grower Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore I wanna be with you Just wanna be with you

But you tease me And it shows in the way that you play, yeah You think you know my love Wake up young girl And take a taste Not a bite, of a life now Can tell you never come, yeah well My will, my mind My lips, my lines I've got them all over you

Your taste combined With all the years we waste in time I've got to hold on to something new But i'm not a grain of sand I don't care what's written in your hand cause it's bound to change, yeah

Sore, bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold Getting older Buy the book, rip it up now Have it sold, I'm a grower Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore I wanna be with you Just wanna be with you But i don't wanna pray for what is not right And I don't wanna beg for what is not mine I don't wanna run the road between dreams and worthy things Oh i could charge, man I could really try But I don't wanna be the brave one In a senseless fight No, i, said i, said i, i just wanna be here tonight

Sore, bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold Getting older Wrap it up, rip it up now Have it sold, I'm a grower Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore I wanna be with you Just wanna be with you

Sore, bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold Getting older Buy the book, rip it up now Have it sold, I'm a grower Anymore (x7)

You keep me in a glass jar sealed with a label You think you know my world Wake up young girl

I think these lyrics are more accurate, based on a live version (only version i can find):

You keep me in a glass jar sealed with a label You think you know my world Wake up young girl and take a taste of life that we must We've got a lot to learn, yeah My love, my life, my work, my time I give them all to you Your hand in mine, we walk, we talk in ryhme We go the whole night through yeah

But i'm not a grain of sand I don't care what's written in your hand cause it's bound to change, yeah

Sore, bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold Getting older Buy the book, rip it up now, have it sewn I'm a grower Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore I wanna be with you Just wanna be with you

But you tease me And it shows in the way that you play, You think you know my love Wake up young girl And take a taste, not a bite, of life, You can tell you never come, yeah well My will, my mind, my lips, my lines I've got them all over you

Your taste combined With all the years of wasting time I've got a hold on something new I'm not a grain of sand I don't care what's written in your hand cause it's about to change, yeah

Sore, bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold Getting older Buy the book, rip it up now Have it sewn, I'm a grower Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore I wanna be with you Just wanna be with you

But i don't wanna pray for what is not right And I don't wanna beg for what is not mine I don't wanna run the road between dreams and worthy things Oh i could charge, man I could really try But I don't wanna be the brave one in a senseless fight No, i, i, i, i just wanna be here tonight

Sore, bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold Getting older Buy the book, rip it up now Have it sewn, I'm a grower Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore I wanna be with you Just wanna be with you

Sore, bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold Getting older Buy the book, rip it up now Have it sewn, I'm a grower Anymore, Anymore, Anymore, Anymore, Anymore, Anymore, Anymore, I need more, I need more, I need more, I need more,

You keep me in a glass jar sealed with a label You think you know my world Wake up young girl

Hate to be a buzz kill, but this song isn't as "romantic" as a lot may think. It's very much so about a guy who is loosing his patience with a girl that won't "put out".

yes he is losing his patience and giving her an ultimatum. I gave you everything and Im still waiting , wake up or I will not waste my time on something that it doesnt worth it. Anyway I love it ...
