It's the right time for you and I to run but you're never there
And when you're last in line no one waits for you if you didn't care

Had your platinum streets paved with gold
You never chose to run

And if you find you're slipping away you'll have to face the day
With the cost of the sand

You'll miss them
Worlds you don't know

Don't let your life pass by you
Now

You might find you can't get away and won't break the chain
To the touch of a hand
And if you find you're slipping away you'll have to face the day
With the cost of the sand

You might find you can't get away and won't break the chain
To the touch of a hand
And if you find you're slipping away you'll have to face the day
With the cost of the san
