Sand

I should be happy,
I should be free
I should be laughing underneath this ocean breeze
But you got me dirty
and I don't want clean

I'm so fixated, so frustrated,
out of touch, and complicated
You're everywhere, I really hate it
Your sex is all I'm contemplatin' -

still I,
I want you here
because I know the place is dead without you near -
What am I doing?
I can't forget

even miles of waves seem meaningless

What do I need to do?
Get out of my heart and off my hands
You know you're one addictive man
You're inside my shoes
And I can't make nobody understand
but I swear I even see you in the sand

...

You're in the house now,
you're on the floor;
you made your way here through the crack under my door -
When I'm reminded of the first half of July...

enough of you goes up to make me blind

What do I need to do?
Get out of my heart and off my hands
You know you're one addictive man
You're inside my shoes
And I can't make nobody understand
but I swear I even see you...

Free I play without a care:
sun and salt and ocean air,
but as I lay me down to sleep,
somethin's scratchin' me in the sheets...

What do I need to do?
Get out of my heart and off my hands
You know you're one addictive man
You're inside my shoes
And I can't make nobody understand
but I swear I even see you...

What do I need to do?
Get out of my heart and off my hands
You know you're one addictive man
You're inside my shoes
And I can't make nobody understand
but I swear I even see you in the sand.
