Hourglass
like a welcome shower after weeks of drought
happy as i was, deep inside i know
there wasn't enough time for love to grow
fate, i should've known, would play its cruel joke
you were also longing for someone to hold
we clung to each other, trying to fill the hole
but both looking back, not ready to let go
time passed by so fast, little did i know
i've climbed out of my hell, my world is aglow
you eased my agony, you filled the void
before i knew it, you became my world
each night i sleep with your arms as my pillow
safe in your embrace, ready to face tomorrow
but like a stab in the heart, you're quick to show
at the end of the tunnel, there's only sorrow
all the times we share, all the places we go
will just be memories of a love that i lost
the heart that you mended, you will pierce with thorns
thus my destiny, you say, i shouldn't feel remorse
i should just be grateful for the life that i owe
i should be satisfied with the food that you throw
i should not be wanting, i am too far below
in the hourglass that you gave me, the sand is running low
when my love is a trap for you no more
after all the sand with the wind has blown
it kills me to say it but i want you know
i love you more than anyone i've known
