House Of Sand Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I watch all the seasons change, and the plans I've made
They all just turn to dust
I see all the memories and the tragedies
It all becomes too much

[Pre-Chorus]
Carry me away, carry me away, carry me away

[Chorus]
It’s like I live in a house of sand
Where nothing ever seems to last
It's crashing down around me
It's crashing down around me
It’s like I live in a house of sand

[Verse 2]
Ashes falling all around to keep the sun from burning out
I'm watching it as it all falls down
My head there's still a symphony, but no one sitting in their seats
I sing a silent melody

[Pre-Chorus]
Carry me away, carry me away, carry me away

[Chorus]
It's like I live in a house of sand (House of sand)
Where nothing ever seems to last
It's crashing down around me (Crashing down around me)
It's crashing down around me (Crashing down around me)
It's like I live in a house of sand
[Outro]
It's like I live in a house of sand
It’s like I live in a house of sand

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
