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...
