Sand falls slowly through the glass
Breaking walls that pain had made
Blurred visions of a buried past
Rise inside me from the grave
A mirror hangs upon the wall
Stained and cracked beyond repair
The final image of my mind
Still breathing in the empty air
Past is fading
Done and gone
Still I feel it
Dragging on
Oh, how many days have I lived?
Oh, was it worth the pain I give?
All the glory, all the scars
All the storms beneath the stars
At the end of this long road
There is still so far to go
Torn sails in the dying light
Still I drift into the night
Stars are born in clouded skies
Like sparks above a darkened shore
They remind me of the night
I ruled the waves and wanted more
Across the seas, against the cold
King of winds I used to be
Guided by the broken sails
To the love that carried me
Cold wind rising
Calming, changing
Every memory
Breaking, fading
Oh, how many days have I lived?
Oh, was it worth the pain I give?
All the glory, all the scars
All the storms beneath the stars
At the end of this long road
There is still so far to go
Torn sails in the dying light
Still I drift into the night
Still inside this tower
I watch my past withdraw
Nothing became what I dreamed
Nothing bends the law
Every crown I carried
Every loss I tried to hide
Falls like dust around me
As the sea pulls back the tide
The hourglass is bleeding
The final grains descend
Rotten wood and torn sails
Show the lives I cannot spend
Oh, how many days have I lived?
Oh, was it worth the pain I give?
All the glory, all the scars
All the storms beneath the stars
At the end of this long road
There is still so far to go
Torn sails in the dying light
Still I drift into the night
The glass is almost empty
The sea has turned away
Torn sails above me
Still calling out my name
