"Hourglass" lyrics

"Hourglass"

All I know is all that's been written
Kept inside, but you don't think it's right

You painted a picture of a house that's on fire
Is that what I did to you, or is that your desire? Ah

You are an hourglass
I want you desperately
I'm running out of time to make you mine
Still longing for when you belonged to me

With words from a scripture and the mouth of a liar
I want to believe in you, you're all I desire
Feel my spine, run your fingers over it
One last time, make me feel alive

I can't be saved, so abandon me
If you feel betrayed, then it's blessed be

Feel my spine
Make me feel alive

You are an hourglass
I want you desperately
I'm running out of time to make you mine
And now it's plain to see
You are an hourglass
I'm on my hands and knees
I'm crawling further from the light again
Still longing for when you belonged to me

All I know is all that's been written
Kept inside, but you didn't think it's right

Even if it can't be saved, I'll survive anyway
Never had to say out loud that you're giving up
I know you're giving up
You're giving up
You are an–

Hourglass
I want you, I want you

You are an hourglass
I want you desperately
I'm running out of time to make you mine
And now it's clear to me
You are an hourglass
I'm on my hands and knees
I'm crawling further from the light again
Still longing for when you belong to me

You can't be phased
Nothing left to see
I'm no longer afraid, so it's blessed be
