Solid rock

well take a look at that
i made a castle in the sand
saying this is where it´s you know
couldn´t understand now
if i realised that the chances were slim
how come i´m so surprised when the tide rolled in
i wanna live on solid rock
i´m gonna live on solid rock
i wanna give i don´t wanna be blocked
i´m gonna live on solid rock
well i´m sick of potential
i´m sick of vanity now
i´m sticking to essential reality now
i don´t know what´s worse
try to make a silk purse
living an illusion living in confusion
well a house of cards
was never built for shock
you could blow it down in any kind of weather
now two solid rocks two solid blocks
you know they´re gonna stick
yeah they´re gonna stick together
because the heart that you break
that´s the one that you rely on
the bed that you make
that´s the one you gotta lie on
when you point your finger cos your plan fell through
you got three more fingers pointing back at you
i wanna live on solid rock
i´m gonna live on solid rock
i wanna give i don´t wanna be blocked
i´m gonna live on solid rock
i´m solid rock now
i made a castle in the sand
saying this is where it´s you know
couldn´t understand now
if i realised that the chances were slim
how come i´m so surprised when the tide rolled in
i wanna live on solid rock
i´m gonna live on solid rock
i wanna give i don´t wanna be blocked
i´m gonna live on solid rock
well i´m sick of potential
i´m sick of vanity now
i´m sticking to essential reality now
i don´t know what´s worse
try to make a silk purse
living an illusion living in confusion
well a house of cards
was never built for shock
you could blow it down in any kind of weather
now two solid rocks two solid blocks
you know they´re gonna stick
yeah they´re gonna stick together
because the heart that you break
that´s the one that you rely on
the bed that you make
that´s the one you gotta lie on
when you point your finger cos your plan fell through
you got three more fingers pointing back at you
i wanna live on solid rock
i´m gonna live on solid rock
i wanna give i don´t wanna be blocked
i´m gonna live on solid rock
i´m solid rock now
