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
