Lyrics

Sandblasted

How does it feel to feel

You know it's for real?

Don't say we'll die

You know it's a lie

I watch from reel to real

Don't see what I feel

Split open wide

Awash in the tide

The beach seemed surreal

Depends how you feel

The sea stretched for miles

I drove all the while

You ask what I feel

I still feel so real

Taken for a ride

And bleeding inside

How does it feel to feel

You know it's for real?

Split open wide

How does it feel to feel

You know it's for real?

The sea stretched for miles

I drove all the while

Don't see what I feel

Don't see what I feel

Don't see what I feel
