The Hour Glass

Time is the movie in which we play minor roles

Time ticks and time tricks us with the illusion of eternity

Time waits like a wolf at the door

Time flows from us like water, blows through us like a breeze

Time takes a silhouette and puts it in your mind

Time takes a sweet regret

And leaves it somewhere you can't find

Time never sleeps, but always dreams

Time is a lifelong joke with a killer punchline

Have you got enough time?

Time ticks another tock

And makes a new tomorrow

Til the clock slips another cog

And the time you're on is borrowed

Time takes the witnesses who shared your story

Time is now

We ride it out of the past and into the future

Time grinds diamonds into sand

And that sand fills another hour glass

Time is a roulette wheel on which we bet until we're broke

Have you got enough time?

Time ticks another tock

And makes a new tomorrow

Til the clock slips another cog

And the time you're on is borrowed

Time drips another drop

The seconds seem to linger

As the sand from the hour glass

Is running through your fingers

Time is neither linear nor real

Time is the God without whom nothing exists

Time is what everything takes

But in the end, time takes everything

Time turns new with second hand

Time despises the constant grovelling of clocks

Time ticks another tock

And makes a new tomorrow

Till the clock slips another cog

And the time you're on is borrowed

Time drips another drop

The seconds seem to linger

As the sand from the hour glass

Is running through your fingers
