Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Here I stand, like an hour glass I sift through time

Strand by strand, try to find a way to just get by

I long to run, escape the grind

This quicksand has got me reaching for the line

So take my hand, take my life

Don't tell me it's better on the other side

[Verse 2]

'Cause we build up our lost dreams

As we etch them into life

It's as fragile as it seems

Like sandcastles against the tide

Like sandcastles against the tide

Like sandcastles

[Verse 3]

Keep awake, from the moments that I can't rewind

Day by day, searching for a little peace of mind

I long to run, escape the grind

This quicksand has got me reaching for the line

So take my hand, take my life

Don't tell me it's better on the other side

[Verse 4]

'Cause we build up our lost dreams

As we etch them into life

It's as fragile as it seems

Like sandcastles against the tide

Like sandcastles against the tide

[Verse 5]

'Cause we build up our lost dreams

As we etch them into life

It's as fragile as it seems

Like sandcastles against the tide
