Sandstörm - Reflection Lyrics

So it's half way time with life
A moment for reflecting, to align your direction
To ensure you're progressing, and not your demise

Now a childhood left behind
With the fear of rejection, and the quest for perfecting
No more wasted speculating, time to balance your mind

And to the Land of Sand
No time for hesitation, but for endless jubilating
Of continued celebrating, your life, life changed too fast

Too fast

Burning candles at both ends
Working every hour God sends
Earning money dawn to dusk
Then to party, it's a must!
It's a must!

But your body's young no more
The Grim Reaper's keeping score
Clock is ticking on your health,
Not just mental stress with wealth

It came out from the blue
Tingling feeling hidden meaning
Coming faster than the healing
Sands of time are all but through

All but through!
All but through!

All but through!
All but through!

When do we know when the world's out of tune?
If our life seems unbalanced but true?
When our friends pass us by to their home in the sky
And it all seems so pointless and blue

How will I ever be free?
How will I ever be free?

A friend pointed out, trick cyclist no doubt
Could lighten your load, show the way
It's heaven or hell, or somewhere between
May even interpret your dreams

Analyse paralyse, gonna get me some help
Some gold, frankincense, myrrh
She'll take you to pieces, and slowly create
A new version, your future for sure

Freud got it right, some families do fight
But who knows their ego from id
Yet I know for sure, when screams are no more
That I was an innocent kid!

I was an innocent kid!

Oscillate, scintillate, diagnose specific
Fain would I fathom your medicine's terrific
Sertraline, Citalopram, Fluoxetine, Diazirine
More bloody pills, I don't give a damn!

In the Land of Sand

Then out of the clouds comes an angel so pure
Flowing hair in the sun
Can this be true?

Caressing my mind and soothing my heart
Could a chapter in life be about to start?

But the light turns to dark, I misread her spark
No safety just pain, no laughter just rain
Her wants like the others, the needs of a mother
Protect and defend and care for no other

Analyse paralyse, gonna get me some help
Some gold, frankincense and myrrh

She'll take you to pieces and slowly create a new version of you
Your future for sure!
Your future for sure!
Your future's assured!
