Lies in the sand (the ballad of...)

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 temble 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 all 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.
