Hourglass (Sands of Time Act IV)

Gazing through the crystal ball Memories reveal the toll That burdened my mind And tortured my soul Flaming shadows of the past Die out and reveal at last The stars, the roads, The path unfolds I can see the ocean now, stretching out too far And call out to the sea Through a thousand grains of sand Looking past the shells for who i used to be... Through time looking for who I used to be Sands of time First voice: Deep beneath the sands of time I've found a gem and made it mine Blue as the sea, red as wine Sip the poison from the truth, Spit it out and taste a strange desire If I only chose that path Took the other turn Would I be alone? + first voice: Through fire and darkness we crumble Under the sands of time In sadness and anger in laughter Under the sands of time Arrival survival revival Under the sands of time Created grow older and buried Under the sands of time So treasure and savour each moment Under the sands of time This one life will be over For one day the reaper will come for you too...
