Built Upon the Sand Lyrics

Day in and day out
Shat on and kicked in
The world's garbage you've been sifting
Mind like a wrath, flame and flood
Done talking, no one's listening

They pushed me, they pushed me
I'll rip this place at the seams
They did this, not me
Inflicted with this disease
I'm screaming, God help me
I scream as loud as I can
This is another life
Built upon the sand

You've hit bottom and you're still sinking
So small and you're still shrinking
What can you do?
You've gone from alone to completely see-through

Let's all watch while the hammer falls

They pushed me, they pushed me
I'll rip this place at the seams
They did this, not me
Inflicted with this disease
I'm screaming, God help me
I scream as loud as I can
This is another life
Built upon the sand
I understand you
I understand you

"When you're screaming at the top of your lungs and no one hears you, what are you supposed to do?"

I understand you
I understand you
I understand you
I understand you

I understand
I understand you
I understand
I understand you
I understand
I understand you
I understand
I understand
You

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
