Lyrics Sandstorm - laura stevenson

I can't stand still
Lay me down on the unrelenting ground
And let this sandstorm cover me

I was surrounded by a red-and-yellow sky
And as it fell, I said to myself, "I was meant to be in flight"
And I was cemented by a sedentary tide
You lied when you went and said "Maybe" one more goddamn time

Don't insult me now, I can take it
Go ahead and break my heart
Make it swift if you've any respect for me at all

Wet in the lungs you're tonguing your uncertain words
Gear up your guts, don't be discouraged, show just how it hurts
Look how many days that you're wasting, hurry up and break my heart
Don't insult your hoverfoot bullshit half in my door

And I can't stand still
Lay me down on the unrelenting ground
And let this sandstorm cover me

And like a dog that's dreaming
I've been twitching between bays
For you to sort your pretty thoughts
It matters less and lesser every day

I can't stand still
Lay me down on the unrelenting ground
And let this sandstorm cover me
I can't stand still (I can't stand still)
Lay me down on the unrelenting ground
And let this sandstorm cover me

And break my heart
Go ahead and break my heart
Hurry up and break my heart
Come on and break my heart
