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.

Cause 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.

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.

Cause 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.
