|
I see the sand fall through my hand |
|
A subtle picture, quiet reminder |
|
We're staring through this hour glass |
|
When will it run out? |
|
When will we run out? |
|
We've learned to build our castles out of sand for so long |
|
So temporary, |
|
I watch them tumble down |
|
It's time to let it go |
|
Turn back the hand to the beginning |
|
Wouldn't it be nice, give me some more time |
|
Bury yourself under the blanket |
|
How do we slow down? |
|
How do we walk when we're supposed to run? |
|
Surround ourselves with plastic bonds |
|
It give us comfort, comfort in numbers |
|
These monuments will always stand |
|
Our lonely temples lean too, we'll all fall |
|
Try to appreciate what little time we have, let's slow it down |
|
Life's so uncertain, we lay our brother's down |
|
It's time to let it go |
|
Turn back the hand to the beginning |
|
Wouldn't it be nice, give me some more time |
|
Bury yourself under the blanket |
|
How do we slow down? |
|
How do we walk when we're supposed to run? |
|
Don't let life pass you by tonight |
|
Brace inside, brace yourself this time |
|
Now I know it's time to let it go |
|
Turn back those hands to the beginning |
|
Wouldn't it be nice, give me some more time |
|
Bury yourself under the blanket |
|
How do we slow down? |
|
How do we walk when we're supposed to run? |
