Hourglass Sand

I was wishing some highway would take us away
Seems so often the night is our only escape
I've been drinking trying to soften the pain
Days feel wasted watching the world melt away
Days feel wasted watching the world melt away

Oooooh

I was searching for truth when yr light caught my eye
Then night fell the dream bit me mouth open wide
Keep losing my words & my will to survive
I could be wasting my breath trying to stay in your life
Am i wasting my breath trying to stay in your life

Oooooh

I was awakened from sleep and delivered the news
Seems an old friend was taken another too soon
With the wind at my back and a blade in my hand
I wait while the day becomes hourglass sand
I wait while the day becomes hourglass sand

Oooooooh
