Hourglass Lyrics

The clouds burst under the weight
of water waiting to fall.
To feed a desloate wasteland and clear
your dust covered sight.
The concept of fear and trembling
has bound you in chains too long.
Now draw your focus away from the gloom.
You were bound to go wrong.
It's time to turn the hourglass
so the grains can freely pass.
Add when the final grain has dropped
it doesn't mean that time has stopped.
Scores of moments of harm and pleasure,
recorded in equal measure.
Time to turn the hourglass
so the grains can freely pass.
You will call, so he will answer,
you will cry for help and he'll say:
Here am I.
But when you rest he will rest
till the dawn of the day.
The concept of fear and trembling
has bound you in chains too long.
Now draw your focus away from the gloom.
You were bound to go wrong.
It's time to turn the hourglass
so the grains can freely pass.
Add when the final grain has dropped
it doesn't mean that time has stopped.
Scores of moments of harm and pleasure,
recorded in equal measure.
Time to turn the hourglass
so the grains can freely pass.
