So please don't ask me how I ended up at my wit's end
Breaking down the pages torn from books we'd never read
Cause we're plugged into this grid
Don't pull this plug right now, then we'd really have to live
When I die, will they remember that?
What I did, or what I haven't done?
It's not the end that I fear with each breath
It's life that scares me to death
When I die, will they remember that?
When we build these dreams on sand
Are they also through our hands?
And this might be our only chance
Let's take this one day at a time
Hold your hand if you won't mind
The time that we kill keeps us alive
Your words won't save me now
I'm at the edge feeling the sweat drip from my brow
Get a grip on yourself is what they say
Every hour, every day
Hands over my ears
I've been screaming all these years
When I die, will they remember that?
What I did, or what I haven't done?
It's not the end that I fear with each breath
It's life that scares me to death
When we build these dreams on sand
Are they also through our hands?
And this might be our only chance
Let's take this one day at a time
Hold your hand if you won't mind
The time that we kill keeps us alive
We came in search of answers
We left empty-handed
Again shots fired into the sky
Are now returning
Where the * will you hide?
From the laughter in the closets of our life
But the door hinges are squeaking late

And now our hands extend in hour
Quiet comfort they invite
But do we dare take what they offer?
Do we step into the light?
When I die, will they remember that?
What I did, or what I haven't done?
It's not the end that I fear with each breath
It's life that scares me to death
When we build these dreams on sand






Are they also through our hands?
And this might be our only chance
Let's take this one day at a time
Hold your hand if you won't mind
The time that we kill keeps us alive
When we build these dreams on sand
Are they also through our hands?
And this might be our only chance
Let's take this one day at a time
Hold your hand if you won't mind
The time that we kill keeps us alive
