Hourglass

A scarlet hourglass is ticking for me All my past has been shrouded by fears I'm trying to forget all my sins I'm still waiting, still waiting for my dream A black hourglass is whispering my death What the future holds? Have I become mad? The scythe soon will fall , taking my last breath In my dreams alive, here already dead! Burning eye of the cruel time Where all the things are passing by Take my soul away Take my shame Fulfil the fate Take my tired soul away! Half empty hourglass is staring at me All things seem to be nothing, indeed I go against the grain but give up at last Thoughts in my head - suffocating dust Broken hourglass is resting in my hands Sand slipping through my fingers with a blood from my veins In front of my eyes - time has stopped again It's my final hour - dream has just began! Burning eye of the cruel time Where all things are passing by Take my soul away Take my shame Fulfil the fate Take my tired soul away!
