I was looking left and right on a dark and lonely desert night
In the belly of a mindless beast after a long and vicious fight
I just see sand, I just see sand
Two palm trees that shade me. The rest is sand
My mind is crammed with metaphors as I'm washed up on desperation
shores
Here is an oasis of hope as the sweat drips from my pores
I just see sand, I just see sand
Two palm trees that shade me, the rest is sand
If I shout no one will hear
If I run how could I ever survive
I hope in the one I half understand
he dead man that now is alive
I think I'm found my only safety, the way I survive me today
The ludicrous thought has become my philosophy
The rest is sand, the rest is sand
In the shadow of two wooden beams, the rest is sand
NEW VERSION
Two palm trees, some grass and a lot of sand
Found myself sitting somewhere.
The road behind me disappeared
Out in the middle of nowhere,
no civilization
I just see sand, I just see sand
Two palm trees, they shade me.
The rest is sand
Two days in either direction.
Empty tank and a broken leg.
I have a pessimistic perception
that I will go the wrong way.
The rest is sand, the rest is sand
Two palm trees they shade me, the rest is sand.
If I shout no one will hear.
If I run, how could I survive?
I hope in one I half understand.
A once dead man that now is alive.
Comfortable in lonely bliss,
just me and the tumbleweed.
I ludicrous thought I can’t dismiss
has become my philosophy
The rest is sand, the rest is sand
In the shadow of two wooden beams.
The rest is sand.
