You know you sell your soul every time you lose control
Is it heaven here on Earth?
And you go through madness on your way to sadness
Seems your prayers are never heard
If you wanna get high again, hit the sky again
Girl, that's up to you
For all this time, Marianne, you've been sand in my hand
I'll keep holding on but until you understand
You're still sand in my hand
You throw it all away, you live to die one more day
But you know you're going down
So every night you look, try every trick in your book
But the time is running out
So if you wanna get high again, hit the sky again
There's nothing I can do
For all this time, Marianne, you've been sand in my hand
I'll keep holding on but until you understand
You're still sand in my hand
So if you wanna try again, can't live a lie again
Believe in me and you
For all this time, Marianne, you've been sand in my hand
I'll keep holding on until all my strength has gone
Don't be sand in my hand
