Nevernettles: Footsteps in the Sand


1. Why hold on now when all crumbles down?
Why evoke what’s not there?
Why fight a losing battle?
Why travel to nowhere?
I’ll give you my word:
The pain will subside gradually

Why embrace me now when my heart is cold?
Why put yours' in my care?
Why give me tears by the gallons
When I do not mine share?
I’ll give you my word:
The pain will ease eventually
Don’t cry
(Cry cry cry)

(Chorus)
Don’t waste your time on me
Just like footsteps in the sand – we’re nothing
Swept away too fast
Don’t waste your time on me
You know we’re like footsteps in the sand – mere nothings
The crash of the waves, can’t you hear it?

2. Why hold on now when all crumbles down?
Why evoke what’s not there?
Why fight a losing battle?
Why travel to nowhere?
I’ll give you my word:
The pain will subside gradually

Why repeat the words that can bring no change?
Why relive dejavus?
Why relish in harmful projection?
Why would you this choose?
I’ll give you my word:
The pain will ease eventually
Don’t cry
(Cry cry cry)

(Chorus)
…They won’t stop.
