Lyrics Hourglass - Sam Phillips
I
hear
a
ticking,
it
keeps
on
ticking
Though
it's
only
inside
my
head
The
light
is
flicking
and
hell
is
kicking
A
believer
before
it's
dead
And
I'm
looking
to
the
hourglass
That's
running
out
of
sand
I'm
looking
through
the
hourglass
Into
another
land
I
hear
a
crying
of
people
dying
And
it's
taking
me
to
the
street
Intensifying
a
self-denying
Bringing
will
starve
defeat
And
I'm
looking
to
the
hourglass
That's
running
out
of
sand
I'm
looking
through
the
hourglass
Into
another
land
Time
is
sifting
away
so
fast
Loving
I've
got
to
love
what
lasts
'Cause
where
have
your
treasure
You
hide
your
heart?
If
you
hide
it
in
this
world,
you
know
it's
gonna
fall
apart
And
I'm
looking
to
the
hourglass
That's
running
out
of
sand
I'm
looking
through
the
hourglass
Into
another
land
