Inside The Hourglass

Sneaking, lurking inside the mist
Of our screaming ego
A lonely, a faded echo
Eagerly counting down the days
Until we’re done with it all
Signalling an end to all of those hopeless dreams
'Cause we are so far behind…
It’s time to realise the here and the now
It is the moment we’ll miss when we look inside
Searching for all that could’ve been
That could’ve been…
We are crawling inside for dreams
That will never mean as much
As we thought, as we hoped
They’ll just fade — like a lover’s touch
But fear not — 'This too will pass'
Chained down but alive
Blinded by the weight of time
Slipping away like clouds…
A thousand lies, a thousand fires
Burning inside broken hearts
A thousand times we fall and rise
Aghast at our final demise
It’s time to realise the here and the now
It is the moment we’ll miss when we look inside
Searching for all that could’ve been
That could’ve been…
