Stranger in Sand
Unveiling Life's Enigma Through 'Stranger in Sand'
Lyrics
I turned down my mind today
Expressing a decision to temporarily disconnect from one's thoughts or overthinking.
Speaking in shades of gray
Describing communication or expression that lacks clarity or definiteness.
I followed a man of no expression
Referring to following someone emotionally distant or unresponsive.
I heard what he had to say
Listening to the words of the emotionless person and taking them in.
I saw the devils word
Witnessing negativity or malevolence represented by the devil's words.
Some through the beaks of birds
Some negative messages conveyed indirectly, possibly through gossip.
The road was a winding silent serpent
Describing a journey with twists and turns, symbolized by a silent serpent.
Sweetest sound I ever heard
Finding joy or beauty in unexpected places or moments during the journey.
Time is moving slowly, thickening the sand
Perceiving time as dragging on slowly, emphasizing the difficulty or challenges faced.
There must be a cure, it's out here, I'm sure
Expressing a belief in the existence of a solution or remedy, but its location is uncertain.
Does anybody understand?
Pleading for understanding from others about the challenges faced.
Time is yours if you want it, kill it
Highlighting the availability of time and the choice to either use or waste it.
Spin it in the sand
Suggesting the act of manipulating time, possibly wasting it in the process.
You think it's just 'cause you bought it
Questioning the value or true ownership of material possessions and achievements.
But it's slipping from your hand
Warning about the fleeting nature of time slipping away, regardless of possessions.
Well, life is made of a million moments
Viewing life as a collection of countless moments, with the opportunity to seize them.
Catch one if you can
Encouraging the pursuit of meaningful moments, but acknowledging the difficulty.
You try so hard but you never own it
Expressing the challenge of truly possessing or controlling one's life experiences.
Stranger in the sand
Identifying oneself as a stranger in the vast expanse of life and experiences.
I saw the ragged thief
Observing a dishonest or deceptive individual hiding beneath a rock.
The rock he was underneath
Describing the concealed location of the dishonest person.
He spoke to the world of consequences
Communicating the consequences of the dishonest person's actions, leading to disbelief.
Crowds cried in disbelief
Expressing the emotional reaction of crowds to the consequences.
Who has the right to sing?
Pondering the entitlement of different entities, emphasizing equality.
Every living thing
Asserting the importance of all living beings, possibly criticizing discrimination.
There are no words a ghost may tell to
Stating that ghosts or the deceased cannot offer solutions to alleviate suffering.
Eliminate your suffering
Highlighting the inability of supernatural entities to end personal suffering.
Time is moving slowly, thickening the sand
Reiterating the perception of time as a slow and burdensome force.
There must be a cure, it's out here, I'm sure
Expressing confidence in the existence of a solution, but still seeking understanding.
Does anybody understand?
Repeating the plea for understanding from others in the face of challenges.
What do you think about it now?
Prompting self-reflection on one's thoughts or actions in the present moment.
What do you think about it now?
Repeating the call for self-reflection, emphasizing the current state of affairs.
What do you think about it now?
Continuing the theme of introspection, questioning thoughts and perspectives.
What do you think about it now, now?
Intensifying the call for immediate reflection on one's current mindset.
I turned down my mind today
Reiterating the decision to temporarily disconnect from one's thoughts or overthinking.
