Weary Wildebeest - The End of Sand Lyrics

Can you lend a helping hand?
My mind is made of sand
Can you tell me what I am?
My mind is made of falling sand
Just another friend slipped through my hands
Is this the end--the end of sand?

So show me who you are, collapsing star
My mind is made of iron bars
A figure in the dark, a second thought
I could be miles of the mark
And what will lie ahead when I see red
When what I know to be the truth has fallen apart?
I can't pretend, I can't pretend
I can't pretend I know this part

Can you lend a helping hand?
My mind is made of sand
Can you tell me what I am?
My mind is made of falling sand
Just then, another friend slipped through my hands
Is this the end--the end of sand?

And here we are again, the cycle's ended
Am I starting something new?
The patterns seem to blend, the bars can bend
But I keep running into you
Could I disappear into your ear
And take the fear away?
My mind says it's a lost cause, it's a lost cause
A pure cliché

Can you lend a helping hand?
My mind is made of sand
Can you lend a helping hand?
My mind is made of sand
Can you lend a helping hand?
My mind is made of sand
Can you lend a helping hand?
My mind is made of sand
