sand through my fingers

Light in the closet, shadows and skeletons
Dance in a sad unexpected way
Haunt and burn old desires captivate
Parts of my mind, fragments of the day

[Chorus]
It’s sand through my fingers, fingers through the hair
Of a ghost I locked away, didn’t think I cared
Sand through the fingers, fingers through the hair

Five heavy years have taken their toll
My mind’s gone tired, heats gone cold
Dancing with visions that turn from black to white
Coaxing me into your everlasting night

[Chorus]
