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.
I don't know what the future holds for me.
Though my direction suffers inconsistency!
When will I ever figure out what is going on?
Close my eyes reaching deep within my dream.
Deep in reflection of a distant memory.
Now I see what is meant to be,
I knew all along but.
I'm afraid of what's to come,
I'm afraid that will mean nothing.
With that reason I've been down this road before.
And every step is just for show,
In every moment an emotion.
An illusion I create to overcome!
I don't know if I can or ever will,
Constantly I will face my destiny.
In consequence lies a certain certainty.
Time for will eventually show me I belong.
Now I see from the outside looking in.
Beyond a past where my future will begin.
Now I know what is meant for me,
I no longer show that.
I'm afraid of what's to come,
I'm afraid that will mean nothing.
With that reason I've been down this road before.
And every step is just for show,
In every moment an emotion.
An illusion I create to overcome!
And while I wait for my life, time won't stand still.
It ebbs away and I'm afraid I will never find myself!
I'm afraid of what's to come,
I'm afraid that will mean nothing.
With that reason I've been down this road before.
And every step is just for show,
In every moment an emotion.
An illusion I create to overcome! [3x]
