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 It  seems your prayers are never heard  Well, 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 And I  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 doÉ  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
