Sand

Turning this into a Hardcore song for my band.

Sand

 

Minutes turn to hours

Hours become days

Days go on for years

And seconds last forever

 

Later never comes

Neither does tomorrow

The sun will rise and set

But time just stands still

 

Days last foever

Nights are even longer

Time goes on endlessly

And manages not to pass at all

 

Itake a breath

And hold it 'til I pass out

But I wake up

Before I even inhale

 

The hourglass is empty

Still running when it's dead

The chimes remain silent

But the pendulum swings

 

I could say Eternity

But that word means something

And the pain is tangible

But you are blind

 

A fraction of a second

Passes in your mind

Miles away, it seems a week

Or two has passed in mine

 

The Past is Gone

The Future is a Lie

The Present doesn't Exist

Neither does Time

 

I'd kill for an hour

If they were real at all

And we could give

Everything a meaning

 

But Nothing is Anything

Everthing is Dead

Though it feels like Forever

No Time has passed
