Lyrics The Hourglass - Jeniferever

The Hourglass

We were characters in a
Dream.
The reasons to try
Fell around us like rain
We couldn’t tell them
Apart so we watched them
On their way down the
Drain.
Then you wake
A bit older, a second
Chance by your side
And you know a bit
Better than to watch as
Streams and rivers…
One day out of hundreds
A night, a week, history
It did not take more than
That.
It cost you your title
Your home and family
The years you spent on
Building it.
I helped you
Remember what should
Or shouldn’t have been
Remembered
We were characters in a
Dream.
The reasons to try
Fell around us like rain
We couldn’t tell them
Apart so we watched them
On their way down the
Drain.
Then you wake, a
Bit older, a second chance
By your side.
And you
Know a bit better than
To watch as streams and
Rivers pass
