Can't climb to heaven on the cross
One lie is promised drained the blood from my heart
Came a message in the dark
Offered the hand of a disembodied man
While I still had the chance

But now it's gone, gone.
And I am who I am
Who I was. I will never be again
Running out of sand

I stare at my reflection to the bone
Blurred eyes look back at me. Full of blame and sympathy
So, so close
Right roads not taken. Futures forsaken
Dropped liked a fossil or stone

But now it's gone, gone.
And I am who I am
Who I was. I will never come again
Running out of sand

A drunk octopus wants to fight
Fearful of dreams, there'll be no sleep tonight
Fine at dinner, dead by dessert
Victims of witness, we're gonna get hurt
A fragile existence with echoes of worth
I can't stop the bleeding nor the tears from thine eyes
There's another us somewhere with much better lives
With God as our witness but he won't testify.

Now it's gone..gone
And I am, who I am
Who I was. I'll never have the chance

Running out of sand
Running out of sand
Running out of sand
