Theater dream lines in the sand lyrics

Sometimes, for a moment of bliss 

 And the passion, we're craving 

 There's a message we miss 

 Sometimes when, the spirits left alone 

 We must believe in something 

 To find if we've grown 

  

 Tragic reflex, shattered calm 

 Static progress, senses gone 

 Numb awareness, Final psalm 

  

 Swept away with the tide 

 Through the holes in my hands 

 Crown of thorns at my side 

 Drawing lines in the sand 

  

 Sometimes, if you're perfectly still 

 You can hear the virgin weeping 

 For the saviour of your will 

 Sometimes, your castles in the air 

 And the fantasies you're seeking 

 Are the crosses that you bear 

  

 Sacred conflict, blessed prize 

 Weeping crosses, stainless eyes 

 Desperate addict, faith disguised 

  

 Swept away with the tide 

 Through the holes in my hands 

 Crown of thorns at my side 

 Drawing lines in the sand 

  

 We fabricate our demons 

 Invite them into our homes 

 Have supper with the aliens 

 And fight the war alone 

 We conjure up our skeletons 

 Enlist the den of thieves 

 Frightened from our closets 

 Then sewn upon our sleeves 

  

 In the stream of consciousness 

 There is a river crying 

 Living comes much easier 

 Once we admit 

 We're dying 

  

 Sometimes, in the wreckage of our wake 

 There's a bitterness we harbour 

 And hate for hatred's sake 

 Sometimes we dig an early grave 

 And crucify our instincts 

 For the hope we couldn't save 

  

 Sometimes a view from sinless eyes 

 Centers our perspective 

 And pacifies our cries 

 Sometimes the anguish we survive 

 And the mysteries we nurture 

 Are the fabrics of our lives 

  

 Swept away with the tide 

 Through the holes in my hands 

 Crown of thorns at my side 

 Drawing lines in the sand...
