Hourglass US - Serenity

Stop
Rewind it back and breathe in again
There's a point to innocence and none of it's irrelevant
The hands of time and death, one in the same
Everything is nothing
What is there to gain
Separate
Separate today from yesterday
There is no in between
If I could see, if I could be anything
I would be everything
I would be nothing

Yet nothing calls the way you do
My beautiful Silence
How could you be so cold
As if time were ever righteous

Taught to run before we walk
Outlines of chalk taking grace's fall
If only we were taught to stand tall instead of sink in the sand
Ignorant to the master plan
Reaching out to gain the world
Falling short, we always hunger for more
Maybe there is bliss in the ignorance of not knowing tomorrow
Maybe all our time is borrowed
Forsaken prisms envision killings of the coward I follow
Crawling from the inside out
I am a slave to nothing but myself

Is it that obvious that I can't take another day
In this Hell I've made for myself
The numbers burned into my brain
I'm drowning subconsciously

So spill your lies and you can watch now as the tables turn
You are a facade and I will break down the foundation in which I have built you upon
You are a lie
You are a lie
No longer a slave to the sands of time
I've let you in my head
You won't take my mind

Are you satisfied now

And if time is everything
Tell me how you'll just die for nothing
When I've been running in circles in my mind

Time is everything
Time is nothing

When every step you take is wrong
In the eye of the storm fading away
With every moment there's love
I know my time isn't up
This failure will not define me
