Fistful Of Sand Lyrics by Five Iron Frenzy

Our Newest Album Ever!

1997

[Verse 1]
Up from the sands of the mighty Sahara comes
Our hero bold, who so it's told
Is a lot like you and me
His passion burns, the world it turns
He fills his hand to fill the void
And fuels the constant feeling
Of nothingness inside his soul
[Chorus]
Feels like nothing ever did
Kills like nothing ever could
Dark and jaded world I hated
Everything I left behind
I don't need you, and I don't want you
World that left me blind
[Verse 2]
Beneath the sands of the mighty Sahara lies
Buried treasure sunken deep
In darkened tombs where dead men sleep
Gold fills hands, or is it sand
The same that covers everything?
Where cities stood, soon deserts found
Now sink beneath the swelling ground
[Chorus]
Feels like nothing ever did
Kills like nothing ever could
Dark and jaded world I hated
Everything I left behind
I don't need you, and I don't want you
World that left me blind
[Bridge]
This world is for the taking
This world is suffocating
Plastic bags of Novocain
Some PCP to kill the pain
You build a tomb to store your rust
Moth-eaten piles of blowing dust
[Verse 3]
Under the sands of the mighty Sahara goes
Our hero bold, in search of gold
A casket for a dying world
Our hero stands, wealth in hand
The prize for his endeavors
The masses cheer, to hide their fears
That no man lives forever
[Chorus]
Feels like nothing ever did
Kills like nothing ever could
Dark and jaded world I hated
Everything I left behind
I don't want you, and I don't need you
World that left me blind
