Hourglass

Can you raise me into the light To make sure I’m still alive These days are so long Waiting for the swansong Salvation is a failure Salvation is a failure For every dream that dies from time Another’s born a hopeless child Salvation is a failure Salvation is a failure All the seasons seem to pass In only one turn of the hourglass All the seasons seem to pass In only one turn of the hourglass Can you open up my chest To release the imperativeness Like birds in an open cage Waiting for the winds to change Salvation is a failure Salvation is a failure Salvation is a failure Salvation is a failure Can you raise me into the light To make sure I’m still alive These days are so long Waiting for the swansong All the seasons seem to pass In only one turn of the hourglass All the seasons seem to pass In only one turn of the hourglass
