A Pocketful Of Stones lyrics

He`s sending stones skimming and flying
Circles spinning out his time
Though the earth is dying his head is in the stars
Chances are this spark`s a lifetime

Out of touch he`ll live in wonder
Won`t lose sleep he`ll just pretend
In his world he won`t go under
Turns without him until the end

Rivers run dry but there`s no line on his brow
Says he doesn`t care who`s saved
It`s just the dice you roll, the here and now
And he`s not guilty or afraid

One day he`ll slip away
Cool water flowing all around
In the river and on the ground
Leave a pocketful of stones and not believe in other lives

Until then he`ll live in wonder
He won`t fight or comprehend
In his world he won`t go under
Turns without him until the end
