Shifting Sands

[Intro]
(Come on)
(Come on)

[Verse 1]
When I look up, I tell you what I see
A sky full of stars
The lights are on, but nobody's home (Come on)
Even on planet Mars
Look out your window, what do you see?
The house is on fire
Can anybody fix this crazy world? (Come on)
The situation's dire

[Chorus]
Light in the valley is coming our way
Freedom of information, but there's a price to pay
Shifting sands (Come on)
Empty hands (Come on)

[Verse 2]
"Sorry we missed you", I got the message
Do I make a fuss?
I gotta confess I haven't got a clue (Come on)
In Google I trust
I'm falling asleep in a cold sweat
Trapped inside a dream
Stormy waters, we're all shipwrecked (Come on)
Together with the crypto queen

[Chorus]
Light in the valley is coming our way
Freedom of information, but there's a price to pay
Shifting sands (Come on)
Empty hands (Come on)

[Verse 3]
I can't complain, everything I need
Is just a click away
I'm Aladdin with an empty cave (Come on)
Connecting every day
One step forward, one step back
Progress at any cost
It's a gridlock, it's a way of life (Come on)
In limbo, I'm lost

[Chorus]
Light in the valley is coming our way
Freedom of information, but there's a price to pay
Shifting sands (Shifting sands)
(Come on)
Empty hands (Empty hands)
(Come on)

[Verse 4]
Rebel angels tempting fate
Are flying underground
Memories are fading up in the cloud (Come on)
The server's going down
The day begins, but it never ends
Meltdown 24/7
Now we know why the lights are out (Come on)
It's a dark road to heaven

[Chorus]
Light in the valley is coming our way
Freedom of information, but there's a price to pay
Shifting sands
Empty hands
Shifting sands
Empty hands
