Lies in the Sand (The Ballad Of..) - King's X

There’s a man, who says there is a light in the sky

All my friends say he’s telling a lie

But he speaks with such passion that I have to think about

And his hands… well they tremble as he points it out

But I can’t see what it’s all about

And the voices of many are singing along it seems

Is it all something new, and will I see it too?

Or is this just continuing man?

Throughout all history claiming they all can see

But the evidence falters just short of my hand

And there are lies in the sand

There’s a man who says he was a satanic beast

And the many were there at his feet

And he scared all the people, 'cause he was just what we want

Is it all something new, and will I see it too?

Or is this just continuing man?

Making more history, claiming they all can see

But the evidence falters just short of my hand

And there are lies in the sand

There are things that will surely seem as they are not

And I might not know all that I’ve got

But the bluffing is easy, and I haven’t seen your hand
