Hourglass

Oh
Oh

You can't keep the past
Collected in an hourglass
You can't watch the waves
Climb higher as the levee breaks
We're gonna learn to swim
Survive among the monsters in the deep
We're so much closer, closer than you think

Oh
Oh

You can't let the peak
Slip away and out of reach
You can't let the wind
Throw you off the mountain
We're gonna set our course
And thrive against the ever-shrinking odds
We're so much closer, closer than you think

One step ahead, never say quit
The future is what we make of it
The truth is not a hidden text
Lost in the fires of generations past
We're gonna tear it up and shout
Goodbye to all these rituals of fear
We're so much closer, closer than you think

Oh, the future is
Oh, what we make of it
Oh, let go of the past
Oh, break the hourglass
