Dust on the hourglass

Another day in paradise
A labor of love
This parasite takes for granted what others dream of
I know nobody’s perfect
Some are just further from it
Destroy yourself
Blame everybody else

Your shoulder is cold
The one true misanthrope
Celebrating differences and severed spines
The crucifixion in your mind

When did you become a burning car wreck?
A pileup on the interstate
Block every lane to make the whole world wait
Crash and burn to taste the concrete
Destroy yourself
Blame everybody else

Your shoulder is cold
The one true misanthrope
Celebrating differences and severed spines
The crucifixion in your mind

So the years pass
You can’t see through the dust on the hourglass
You’ve lost ten thousand grains of sand
And you can never get them back
You can never get them back

You occupy one place in time
This wicked world left you behind
You occupy one place in time
This wicked world left you behind
You occupy one place in time
This wicked world left you behind
You occupy one place in time
This wicked world left you behind
You occupy one place in time
This wicked world left you behind
Left you behind
