She wrote her name in sand   And lived a lie within   The sadness and sorrow   For the loss that came again   Water washed the tears away   But the emptiness stayed   Tamed itself with outrage   And spit the bitterness away      This water won't feed the earth   Nothing grows on sour ground      She cannot calm the screams   To silence in her head   Staring with her empty eyes   Try to feel what she had   She wrote her name in sand   And loved a lie within   Where beauty can be cruel   And beauty takes it all      This water won't feed the earth   Nothing grows on sour ground      I will swim with you   And play amongst the waves   Where mermaids will be singing   Where the sweet song remains   Like a comfort whisper   To be together again   She wrote her name in sand   And believed her lie within      This water won't feed the earth   Nothing grows on sour ground   This water won't feed the earth   Nothing grows on sour ground
