Passing Time

You took my heart-shaped hourglass
And turned it over, over
The further that I’m falling back,
You bring me closer, closer
Cause I lost my way inside the truth,
Watching moments slipping through
My hands kept getting emptier each day
You lit the match, shook me awake

The fire grew, you fanned the flames
It burned until the walls let in the light,
We’re all passing time,
Looking for therush that makes us feel alive
Living through the moments
Trapped inside a lie
I need you here tonight
Show me there’s more to life
And we’re not passing time
You took the armor on my chest
And tore it open, open
You saw my heart inside the mess

Said it’s not broken, broken
Cause I lost my way inside the truth,
Watching moments slipping through
My hands kept getting emptier each day
You lit the match, shook me awake
The fire grew, you fanned the flames
It burned until the walls let in the light
We’re all passing time

Looking for the rush that makes us feel alive,
Living through the moments
Trapped inside a lie
I need you here tonight
Show me there’s more to life
And we’re not passing time
