a re-arrangement of dylan's 'every grain of sand'..
thanks to ResearchX for sending it and reminding me of it's lyrical beauty..
hope u like:)

every grain of sand

in the time of my confession
in the hour of my deepest need
when the pool of tears beneath my feet
flood every new born seed
there's a dying voice within me
reaching out somewhere
toiling in the danger
and in the morals of despair

don't have the inclination
to look back on my mistakes
like cain i now behold
this chain of events i must break

in the fury of the moment
i can see the master's hand
and in every leaf that trembles
in every grain of sand

oh the flowers of indulgence
and the weeds of yesteryear
like criminals they have choked the breath
of conscience and good cheer

the sun beats down upon the steps
of time to light the way
to ease the pain of idleness
and the memory of decay

i gaze into the doorway
of temptation's angry flame
and everytime i pass that way
i always hear my name

then onward on my journey
i came to understand
that every hair is numbered
like every grain of sand

i have gone from rags to riches
in the sorrow of the night
in the violence of a summer's dream
in the chill of a wintry night

in the bitter dance of loneliness
fading into space
in the broken mirror of innocence
on every forgotten face

i hear the ancient footsteps
like the motion of the sea
sometimes i turn
there's someone there
sometimes only me

i'm hanging in the balance
of the reality of man
like every sparrow falling
like every grain of sand

  • Why, but why do you have to be without a shirt ?!

    I hate to watch those vids and dont know why myself. Every 5th song cover is some guy without a shirt. I feel like drawing indians now.

  • you're either a shirt salesman or a religious nut..i'm sure you'll get better one day, peace

  • thanks for all the comments, appreciated!

  • Pretty good singing, great song, obviously. This guy should have gone to the bathroom, though, BEFORE filming this.

  • Great voice and version, but I don't get the shirtlessness either.

  • @rayray66 you're probably right, ray.. it was a hot day
