Passing Time

You took my heart-shaped hourglass And turned it over, over The further that I’m falling back You bring me closer, closer Cause I lost my way inside the truth Watching moments slipping through My hands kept getting emptier each day You lit the match, shook me awake The fire grew, you fanned the flames It burned until the walls let in the light Cause we’re all passing time Looking for the rush that makes us feel alive Living through the moments, trapped inside a lie I need you here tonight Show me there’s more to life And we’re not passing time You took the armor on my chest And tore it open, open You saw my heart inside the mess Said it’s not broken, broken Cause I lost my way inside the truth Watching moments slipping through my hands Kept getting emptier each day You lit the match, shook me awake The fire grew, you fanned the flames It burned until the walls let in the light Cause we’re all passing time Looking for the rush that makes us feel alive Living through the moments, trapped inside a lie I need you here tonight Show me there’s more to life And we’re not passing time
