Intro
Verse 1
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
Chorus
I'm going to live on solid rock
I'm going to live on solid rock
I want to give I don't want to be blocked
I'm going to live on solid rock
Verse 2
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
Chorus
I'm going to live on solid rock
I'm going to live on solid rock
I want to give I don't want to be blocked
I'm going to live on solid rock
Bridge
Well a house of cards
Was never built for shock
You could blow it down in any kind of weather
Now you take two solid rocks two solid blocks
You know they're going to stick
Yeah they're going to stick together
Instrumental
Verse 3
Because the heart that you break
That's the one that you rely on
The bed that you make
That's the one you got to lie on
When you point your finger because your plan fell through
You got three more fingers pointing back at you
Chorus
I'm going to live on solid rock
I'm going to live on solid rock
I want to give I don't want to be blocked
I'm going to live on solid ...
Outro
Rock, rock, solid rock,
Solid rock, solid rock,
I want to give I don't want to be blocked
I'm going to live on solid ...
Rock, rock, solid rock,
Solid rock, solid rock,
I want to give I don't want to be blocked
I'm going to live on solid ...
Rock, rock, solid rock,
Solid rock, solid rock,
I want to give I don't want to be blocked
I'm going to live on solid ...
