D A

Tried to face up to the blinding sun

Bm

Racing for the final word to come

G G/F#

Facing up is hard, to stay devout

D A G

I can't see the sand and it's running out

D G

And it's running out

D A

We quote each other only when we're wrong

Bm

We tear out the threads and move along

G G/F#

Can't seem to find common ground

D A Em

I can't see the sand and it's running out

A

It was only circumstances

D

But it's the difference

A

It gets in the way

Em A

No race is run in this direction

D

You can't break even

A Bm

You can't even quit the game

D G D A Bm G D A G D G

D

The current drags to the bottom

A

A hemorrhage that moves us around

Bm

Pulls and beckons, strong direction

G G/F#

High water forever bringing us down

D A G

I can't see the sand and it's running out

D G

It's running out

Em A

It was only circumstances

D

But it's the difference

A

It gets in the way

Em A

No race is run in this direction

D

You can't break even

A G D

You can't even quit the game
