The Hourglass
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't ask me where I've been
It's harder than it seems
Not hanging my head down
My helmet on and it's a gas
I'll fight the goddamn hourglass
The leaves might turn to brown
I'll fight the goddamn hourglass
A grain of sand means nothing much to me
I spit on those who live so listlessly
I'll light a match and burn the whole tree
When my day comes
I won't be waiting on my knees
Don't try to break my fall
I'm just trying to save my soul
The sword is on my head
My helmet on and see ya lads
Like some in cars and some with tabs
Be gone before I'm told
I'll break the fucking hourglass
The time has come for me to tell the truth
It's such a crime to save on someone's youth
I'll light a match and burn the whole tree
When my day comes
I won't be waiting oh no
The thing has cracked cause I hit it so hard
And all my life just started pouring out
I'll light a match and burn the whole tree
When my day comes
I won't be waiting...
Don't ask me where I've been
It's harder than it seems
I'm not hanging my head down...
