Lyrics

I've been wandering the sands of time
Poring through ancient books alone
Visions floating in the hourglass
That pass before my eyes as I pore through these tomes

Striving on for my purity
Through Latin script I read alone
Looking for the reasons why humanity
Inflicts upon the poor disease and poverty

Locked within my lonely room
I'm carried off to distant lands
Feeling the anguish for the millions
Who've died beneath these sands

I'm travelling the sands of time
Through all the places in my mind
I have no burdens, no finess
Only the hope that I'll be blessed
(I'll be blessed)
Yeah

Locked within my lonely room
I'm carried off to distant lands
Feeling the anguish for the millions
Who've died beneath these sands

I'm travelling the sands of time
Through all the places in my mind
I have no burdens, no finess
Only the hope that I'll be blessed
(I'll be blessed)
Wow in the sands of time
(I'll be blessed)
Yeah

So we believe in our machinery
A tribute to our destructiveness
The soul goes on to live forever
The mortal life is but a mote in the sands of time
Yeah
