lyrics

Abstract vision from across the sea
I know you and me will never be
Taking me along with a hundred creeds
Just another vision from across the sea

Carry me now, it's only love
Everything I own and everything above
Take me home to the cardboard cove
Carry me now, it's only love

And when the sun sets I'll be free
It all melts away like a poisoned tree
Everything I know is on my hand
I still have your note but I'm just sand

Sand

In the end there will be nothing but hope for you
In the end there will be nothing but the best for you

Carry me now, it's only love
Everything I own and everything above
Take me home to the cardboard cove
Carry me now, it's only love

And when the sun sets I'll be free
It all melts away like a poisoned tree
Everything I know is on my hand
I still have your note but I'm just sand

Sand

In the end there will be nothing but hope for you
In the end there will be nothing but the best for you

I saw the end in all its shades
I saw the end it's the end it's the end it's the end it's the end it's the end it's the end

Abstract vision from across the sea
I know you and me will never be
