LYRICS:
We’ve brushed past each other so many times, I long to see your face, to greet you at my door.
I fear this hourglass will double in pace, bound to production, race to my grave.
Building engines to speed up life’s process, failure has me lost, seeking my end. Now that we’ve been in the same room for weeks, my worms begin to ache, begging for my bones.
I’ve seen this hourglass as it doubles in pace, forced by obsession, race to my grave.
I feel this hourglass as it fades my face, torn by seduction, race to my grave.
Why must I race? Why must I.
What I've done has vanished while my forthcoming loses meaning, as colour fades from skin my focus shifts, I realize that it’s finally time to let go, breath slow, grow old, die alone. Wake me with every breath, feed me before I rest.
I’ve seen the hourglass as it changes in pace, delay my chase my grave can wait.
