Shake off the devil
Don't pay with your life
A last embrace and I'll leave the strife
I'm lookin' around me
And don't like what I see
There ain't nothing called in between
Sand runs through the opaque hourgla**
The future is still untold
Prepare the inner dream to be unfold
Conjuring up images in mind
I've been waiting for so long
I've absorbed my life
You cannot squeeze the life out of me
Although nothing is as it should be
The transience of all things around us
Rushes through my fingers like grains of sand
It came without warning
I was chasing my dreams
When I tripped over reality
A shattering prospect
Too frail to cross the line
I recognized the sign o' the times
Wind sounds roar through the hourgla**
Before the storm suddenly quells
Remembering another broken shell
I'll stand up and leave my fears behind
Bleeding deep inside of me
Make your dreams come true 'cos time flies
You cannot squeeze the life out of me
Although nothing is as it should be
The transience of all things around us
Rushes through my fingers like grains of sand
This moment won't last forever
It takes absence to value presence
It seems that my hourgla** is shaken and I get another chance
You cannot squeeze the life out of me
Although nothing is as it should be
The transience of all things around us
Rushes through my fingers like grains of sand
