SHIFTING SANDS

Changes are happening everywhere you look
Sometimes they come to mind in a story book
So subtle, day to day, a different part to play
Shifting sands of time that fade away
That fade away, fade away

You thought you had it made on the gravy train
you came to realize it was happening again
People were calling out try to take your pay
Shifting sands of time that fade away
That fade away, fade away, fade away child

Everyday spent paying dues and what is there to show
After all is said and done we're only what we know
You pay the consequence with every card you play
Shifting sands of time that fade away
That fade away, fade away, fade away
