The towers that shoulder your pride
The words you′ve written in stone
Sand will cover them, sand will cover youThe streets that suffer your name
Your very flesh and your bones
Sand will cover them, sand will cover you
So put your faith in more than steel
Don't store your treasures up with moth and rust where thieves break in and steal
Pull the fangs from out your heel
Oh, we live in but a shadow of the real
Step out from time and see the dust of nations
Step out from time and hear the stars ovation
Saturn will not sleep until the sand has made us clean
Still, we stack our stones and bury what we can
But it all will be undone, and nothing built under the sun
Will ever stand before the endless march of sand
So put your faith in more than steel
Don′t store your treasures up with moth and rust where thieves break in and steal
Pull the fangs from out your heel
Oh, we live in but a shadow of the real
So put your faith in more than steel
Don't store your treasures up with moth and rust where thieves break in and steal
Pull the fangs from out your heel
Oh we live in but a shadow of the real
