Trapped in a Hour Glass Lyrics


It's early in the morning, and he's still sleeping

Dead to the world, yet he's not dreaming

Then someone wakes him, and clears his mind

He lets hatred go, and then, his dreams arrive

At some time in my life, all the cards were laid before me

But faced with indecision, I turned and walked away

Now I can't find my way

This deserted path is changing everyday

Beyond the things I know

I'm trapped in an hourglass

Not knowing which way to go

Now that I've let go of the past

In the midst of twilight, the colors all turn grey

The fear of night sets in, and sweeps our past away

An ancient mystery, where shadows hide with dreams

Displaying images, of all our deepest needs

We must move on

To the place where things are right

But subconscious thoughts

Conceal the path in sight...

The rising water floods your dreams (floods your dreams)

A distant calling, desperate scream (desperate scream)

Your need for belonging, a fear of the unknown (fear of the unknown)

Your will for survival, is clearly shown (cleary shown)

But then like an angel, she shows you the way (shows you the way, shows you the way)

To the unseen path, that you've always known

Beyond the things I know

I'm trapped in an hourglass

Not knowing which way to go

I've let go of the past

A brand new world unfolds

New hopes and dreams come to pass

Who knows what tomorrow holds

When you're trapped in an hourglass?

Beyond the things I know

I'm trapped in an hourglass

Not knowing which way to go

Now that I've let go of the past

Let go of the past

The past...
