Rocks Into Sand

Long before fish every walked on land
Time was turning rocks into sand
Rocks into stone, stone into sand
Sand that slips through the hands of a man

So I built my castle close by the shore
And I slept on the sands of the ocean's roar
Then I came to understand
That my house was built on shifting sand

So we went to the hill and built us a town
With beautiful views for miles around
When the mountain shook and tumbled down
We knew we built on shaky ground

Before fish every walked on land
Time was turning rocks into sand

Rocks into stone
Stone into sand
Sand that slips through the hands of a man

Now the sands will shift and the earth's gonna roll
The rocks and the rain will collect their toll
And all I'll take is what I brought
And I may not get what I sought
Whether I sink or I fall
That's up to the shifting sands after all

Before fish every walked on land
Time was turning rocks into sand
