Lyrics of
Hourglass

verse 1
I feel like I'm pounding on a big door
No one can hear me knocking,
I feel like I'm falling flat to the floor
No one can catch me from falling,
The hourglass has no more grains of sand
My watch has stopped no more turning hands
The crew have abandoned the ship
+The lights are on but no one is in.
Take it to the bridge throw it overboard
See if it can swim back up to the shore
No one?s in the house everyone is out
All the lights are on and the blinds are down
Take it to the bridge throw it overboard
See if it can swim back up to the shore
No one?s in the house everyone is out
All the lights are on and the blinds are down
verse 2
I feel like I'm calling on a telephone
No one can hear the ringing,
I feel like I'm running up a steep hill
No one can stop me from running,
The hourglass has no more grains of sand
My watch has stopped no more turning hands
The little hand shakes its fist
The face is hanging out on a spring.
Take it to the bridge throw it overboard
See if it can swim back up to the shore
No one?s in the house everyone is out
All the lights are on and the blinds are down
(This Chorus percussion only in original)
Take it to the bridge throw it overboard
See if it can swim back up to the shore
No one?s in the house everyone is out
All the lights are on and the blinds are down
verse 3
The hourglass has no more grains of sand
Little red grains of sand
My watch has stopped no more turning hands
Little green neon hands.
Take it to the bridge throw it overboard
See if it can swim back up to the shore
No one?s in the house everyone is out
All the lights are on and the blinds are down
Take it to the bridge throw it overboard
See if it can swim back up to the shore
No one?s in the house everyone is out
All the lights are on and the blinds are down
Outro
Feels like I'm calling back to the shore
No one can hear me calling
Fade out
Feels like I'm falling flat to the floor
No one can catch me from falling
