Lyrics

[00:07.02] Try to face up to the blinding sun
[00:18.08] Racing for the final word to come
[00:23.71]
[00:24.64] Facing up, it's hard to stay devout
[00:30.46]
[00:31.90] I can see the sand and it's running out
[00:39.45]
[00:44.14] And it's running out
[00:45.96]
[00:51.83] We quote each other only when we're wrong
[01:00.27]
[01:03.83] We tear out the threads and move along
[01:08.89]
[01:10.14] We can't seem to find common ground
[01:16.09]
[01:17.59] I can see the sand and it's running out
[01:25.46]
[01:26.71] It was only circumstances
[01:29.52]
[01:30.46] But it's the difference, it gets in the way
[01:34.96]
[01:36.34] No race is run in this direction
[01:41.46]
[01:42.09] You can't break even
[01:44.34]
[01:46.28] You can't even quit the game
[01:50.97]
[02:49.28] The current drags to the bottom
[02:53.28]
[02:54.46] hemorrhage A that moves us around
[02:59.41]
[03:01.22] It pulls and beckons in a strong direction
[03:06.28]
[03:07.04] High water forever bringing us down
[03:13.10]
[03:14.79] I can see the sand and it's running out
[03:22.53]
[03:26.91] And it's running out
[03:29.47]
[03:33.10] It was only circumstances
[03:35.85]
[03:36.91] But it's the difference, it's in the way
[03:41.91]
[03:43.35] No race is run in this direction
[03:49.04] You can't break even
[03:51.41]
[03:53.41] You can't even quit the game
