Sand In The Needle Lyrics

Sittin' in the evening light

Sink on the water

Everything turns gold but my silver ring

Twilight lies in so many darkened ways

All my tomorrows for one yesterday

I'd say I love you

Bet I never said before

Not since that whore took my

Heart and bit through

I'd spend time with you doing whatever

Any silly thing to take my precious time

Makes my time precious

Anything you want to do

There ain't no dock, there ain't no bay

Just time to take me far away

Each second's one more tick farther from

Where I want to be, what was home to me

I got sand in the needle

The bulb on my pipe's broke

Dreams escape, going up in smoke

Jim Beam tastes like gasoline

Ain't no motor for either

No spark left it seems

And the most special part of this song

Was fifteen years ago

When her body was strong

And I faked our way with ego

And people believed

Please Elon Musk, make me a time machine

Send me down the time stream

You can keep my works and my silver ring
