Hourglass

I'm almost out of gas again, driving down the 405

I'm almost out of patience now, but there's no place left to hide

I'm almost out of memories half sewn into my sleeve

I'm almost out of everything I've lost but still believe

I remember Montalvo, riding my bike out in the rain

And I can still hear my daddy saying: Don't worry everything's okay

But couldn't bare to see you like that, both down on your luck

I couldn't write a check and tell you not to pack the truck

And all I wanted was to be our hero then

And all these years later I'm still struggling

But flying to Chicago, it was colder than champagne

She did something different, we followed soon in our own ways

Whenever narrow paths would lead, we'd drive into that light

Now I'm on that same old road, just tryna make it right

I'm almost out of money again, such a familar kind of pain

Yeah, maybe my friends judge me, or maybe I still feel ashamed

But I've become accustomed to not having much, so I fight

When you get a little bit, you try to hold on tight

We don't have the answers but it's real (woah)

All the love that you and I still feel (ooh)

I'm almost out of road to run, half lit up by the Moon

Backed into a corner again, but this might be over soon

You were my angel then and still you are today

When I feel my strength decline, you lend me both your wings

I don't wanna be a cautionary tale (woah)

Put it on the line only to fail

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ah-ah

Ooh-ooh

As the ships sail in and you hope your dreams don't crash

As the flickering light dims, the night wears on too fast

After many summer the swan dies, life's contrast

Another young romance that just wasn't built to last

As the memory fades greyer into the past

And the pages keep turning while you and your friends skip class

And there's a lot of obstacles that you simply can't bypass

Another grain of sand falls through the hourglass

Another day that you and I just can't get back

Another grain of sand falls through the hourglass

Another day that you and I just can't get back

I know sometimes it's all too much, oh-oh

I know sometimes it's all too much, oh-oh

I know sometimes it's all too much, oh-oh

I know sometimes it's all too much
