Fistful Of Sand Lyrics

Every morning I wake up and you are home
But in your eyes I see that I'm alone
You've left me with your body in my arms
But I can't feel you anymore - You are gone

I can touch your skin but you aren't there
Frustration burns in me, it's...

    As songs by The Bravery go, I think this is uncharacteristically straightforward for them, though still holding some of the vagueness that characterizes their songs.

    I think it's about a man who finds his girlfriend taking less and less interest in him, maybe cheating on him, maybe not. He wants then to stay together, but recognizes that there's nothing he can do, and trying to keep the relationship together would be as futile as trying to hold a fistful of sand.
