Can't climb to heaven on the cross<br />One lie is promised drained the blood from my heart<br />Came a message in the dark<br />Offered the hand of a disembodied man<br />While I still had the chance<br /><br />But now it's gone, gone.<br />And I am who I am<br />Who I was. I will never be again<br />Running out of sand<br /><br />I stare at my reflection to the bone<br />Blurred eyes look back at me. Full of blame and sympathy<br />So, so close<br />Right roads not taken. Futures forsaken<br />Dropped liked a fossil or stone<br /><br />But now it's gone, gone.<br />And I am who I am<br />Who I was. I will never come again<br />Running out of sand<br /><br />A drunk octopus wants to fight<br />Fearful of dreams, there'll be no sleep tonight<br />Fine at dinner, dead by dessert<br />Victims of witness, we're gonna get hurt<br />A fragile existence with echoes of worth<br />I can't stop the bleeding nor the tears from thine eyes<br />There's another us somewhere with much better lives<br />With God as our witness but he won't testify.<br /><br />Now it's gone..gone<br />And I am, who I am<br />Who I was. I'll never have the chance<br /><br />Running out of sand<br />Running out of sand<br />Running out of sand
