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
