LYRICS:
Can you feel the sand of time
Slipping through your fingers
Each next day reduces
The value of itself
We only have that much time
To rush through daylight
And face the returning night
Lay down
Close your eyes
No thoughts
Relax and smile
Fade to black
Like an old movie
In fast motion
Black and white
Dreams can be magical
You fly and drown in the light
One of these mornings
You start to sincerely doubt
What is really a nightmare
As you wake up into reality
Naked and cold
Probably alone
Treat yourself to some freedom
See how far it gets you
Just in case you see no shame
In going after something more
Try not to mention it around the antiques
Who will pour shame over your head
Them gears have to keep on turning
Who told you it’s not your concern
Such words can nail you down
Binding and tangling
Making you feel like less
Is it really a question of luck
Does anybody know
What needs to be done
Is there an algorithm
Some kind of mystery
Maybe a remedy
No one ever dreamed
Growing up and making plans
To get locked in a day
Pretty much always the same
Sadly this is how
People mostly spend their time
And hardly get a real chance
To exit this infinite dance
The sun is about to attack your eyelids now
Get up full of hope foolish perhaps
At least then you know that you tried
