Hourglass xx
xx Back
I've been looking through a glass
Filled with sand of forever time
I watch as the grains come to pass
And all I see is your face fading into mine

Fragile and breathless, seconds turn
Going until a minute becomes an apathetic hour
Hours fall away, unlived and craving the burn
One made by lifes deepest and most sacred power

So much time has been carelessly wasted
Time forever gone; the hourglass cannot be turned over
And I've been looking, trying to recall how living tasted
So much thirst lays within my heart, to satisfy could take forever

And as i watch the grains of forever time fall away
All I can see is your face fading into the grey
