Sand Lyrics by Phish

Live in Utica 2010

2000

[Verse 1]
If you can heal the symptoms but not affect the cause
It's quite a bit like tryin' to heal a gunshot wound with gauze
If you instead attempt to wrest the pistol from the hand
Then I would not be able to equate my life with sand

[Verse 2]
Flowin' through the hourglass, pushin' through the funnel
Turn once more while racing all your siblings for the tunnel
Slide and let the silicone embrace you as you fall
Then bounce and land and let your brothers crush you to the wall

[Verse 3]
I would choose my own religion and worship my own spirit
But if he ever preached to me, I wouldn't wanna hear it
I'd drop him, a forgotten god, languishing in shame
And then if I hit stormy seas, I'd have myself to blame

[Outro]
If you can heal the symptoms but not affect the cause
If you can heal the symptoms
If you can heal the symptoms but not affect the cause
If you can heal the symptoms
If you can heal the symptoms but not affect the cause
If you can heal the symptoms
If you can heal the symptoms but not affect the cause
If you can heal the symptoms
