^DTried to face up to the blinding ^Asun Racing^Bm for the final word to come

Facing up is ^Ghard, to ^G/F#stay devout I can't ^Dsee the ^Asand and it's running ^Gout

^DAnd it's running ^Gout ^DWe quote each other only when we're ^Awrong

We tear out the ^Bmthreads and move along Can't seem to ^Gfind ^G/F#common ground

I can't ^Dsee the ^Asand and it's running ^Emout It was only ^Acircumstances

But it's the ^Ddifference It gets in the w^Aay

No race is ^Emrun in this ^Adirection You can't break ^Deven

You can't ^Aeven quit the ^Bmgame D G D A Bm G D A G D G

^DThe current drags to the bottom A hemorrhage that ^Amoves us around

Pulls and ^Bmbeckons, strong direction High water ^Gforever ^G/F#bringing us down

I can't ^Dsee the ^Asand and it's running ^Gout ^DIt's running ^Gout

^EmIt was only ^Acircumstances But it's the ^Ddifference

It gets in the ^Away No race is ^Emrun in this ^Adirection

You can't break ^Deven You can't ^Aeven quit the ^Ggame ^D
