Lies In The Sand (the Ballad Of...) Lyrics - King's X

There's a man, who says there is a light in the sky 

All my friends say he's telling a lie 

But he speaks with such passion that I have to think about 

And his hands, well they tremble as he points it out 

But I can't see what it's all about 

And the voices of many are singing along it seems 

Is it all something new? And will I see it too? 

Or is this just continuing man? 

Throughout all history claiming they all can see 

But the evidence falters just short of my hand 

And there are lies in the sand 

There's a man who says he was a Satanic Beast 

And the many were there at his feet 

And he scared all the people 

'Cause he just what we want 

Is it all something new? And will I see it too? 

Or is this just continuing man? 

Making more history, claiming they all can see 

But the evidence falters just short of my hand 

And there are lies in the sand 

There are things that will surely seem as they are not 

And I might not know all that I've got 

But the bluffing is easy and I haven't seen your hand
