Hourglass
Where are we going with our distant state of mind?
Do we ignore the signs in front of our eyes?
It is only a matter of time.
Why are we tearing our wondrous world apart?
Why is it hard to see we all need,
Love and an open heart.
Sad how time goes past with sand in an hourglass,
When every moment can last.
Sad how time goes past with sand in an hourglass,
When every moment can last.
Why are we fighting and drawing lines in the sand?
Why is it part of the plan to spill blood on command?
Surrender to peace hand in hand.
Why are we lying and repeating the same mistakes?
When will we change our ways before it's too late?
Together is what it will take.
Sad how time goes past with sand in an hourglass,
When every moment can last.
Sad how time goes past with sand in an hourglass,
When every moment can last.
