Life Runs Out Like Sand Lyrics

In this ever-changing world
In these times, these days of challenge
As my systems begin to fail
I hear voices beyond the veil
Love decays under our dying star
Strange, how time delays the knowing who we are
As the years slip through my hand
My life runs out like sand
I will play a poison lullaby
In fields of gravity under a falling sky
As the day slow-fades away
Warning shadows crawl across my walls of grey
Sweetness drips from the exquisite corpse
Sleeping sickness grips at every ghost who walks
As the years slip through my hand

My life runs out like sand
Out like sand
Out like sand
Out like sand
