The Hourglass

Don't ask me where I've been
It's harder than it seems
Now I'm hanging my head down
My helmet on and it's a gas
I fight the goddamn hourglass
That leaves my time to brown

I fight the goddamn hourglass
A grain of sand means nothing much to me
I spit on those who live so listlessly
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
Just try to save my soul
The sword is on my head
My helmet on and see you lads
Like Tom and Cos in some wet house
I'll be gone before I'm told

I'll break the fucking hourglass
I swear I'll break it

The time has come for me to tell the truth
It's such a crime to savor someone's youth
I 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 all my life
Just started pouring out

I light a match and burn the whole tree
When my day comes I won't be waiting
I'll fix my fucking nothing
I'll fix my fucking nothing
I'll break the fucking hourglass
I'll break the fucking hourglass

Don't ask me where I've been
It's harder than it seems
Now I'm hanging my head down
