Sands of an Hour Glass(song)

[chorus]
We’re trapped in here
Standing still
Our soundless screams
Our pointless efforts… to escape
Open your eyes
Accept the truth
Don’t run away
Just go on through…

I never thought that things would end up like this
That time would stop so suddenly for someone so meaningless
Where do we go from here, paused and frozen?
We’re stuck between the sands of an hour glass

Time plays a trick on us all, so often
Speeding up in the moments we never want to end
Passing slower and slower through torture

Who ever thought that it would just stop?
Especially at a time like this

[chorus]
We’re trapped in here
Standing still
Our soundless screams
Our pointless efforts… to escape
Open your eyes
Accept the truth
Don’t run away
Just go on through…

You were nothing more than a stranger at first
Not that important, since we’ll all leave here soon
Why not go for it, here and now
While we’re stuck between the sands of an hour glass

We’re all here now, together
Play your moves well, before this all ends
Know now, that everything has an ending

I’m so happy that time just stopped
Especially at a time like this

[chorus]
We’re trapped in here
Standing still
Our soundless screams
Our pointless efforts… to escape
Open your eyes
Accept the truth
Don’t run away
Just go on through…

[bridge]
Stop trying to get passed right now
This time freeze is a blessing
Live it before time starts up again
No regrets, this happens once in your life time

Live here and now…
While we’re stuck between the sands of an hour glass

    i would love to hear this sung. it is such a strong and powerful message. themes of mortality and acceptance as well as gratitude for this moment!!! i loved reading every line of this! excellent work i look forward to reading more from you.

  • Another great song!

    what an astounding metaphor you chose!
    absolutely perfect too....
    The heart of a poet...and soul of musician

    is there any better combination!
    way to write
    fearlessly, passionately and vulnerably bold!
