Try to make amends as the sand runs out
Please forgive me when you're not around
I see everything, I carry you around
Just you know I'll never let you down
But it's hard coming to terms
Time ain't on our side and soon it's your turn
To return to earth
Amongst the dirt you'll settle, rot with the worms
The last to burn, flames to ember, scatter the ashes
On your deathbed just remember
I'll carry you with me for life
(Everyday) is just another second until you fade away
(In your name) I will carry your cross, I will never stray
(In my mind) I see visions of the vultures picking at your spine
(And I'd try) to break the backs of god, if I could buy you time
Life played you but you never settled
Sacrificed it all to outrun the devil
Put us out of his reach, sealed our fate
If I could just ease your pain, I'd take it all away
(Everyday) is just another second until you fade away
(In your name) I will carry your cross, I will never stray
(In my mind) I see visions of the vultures picking at your spine
(And I'd try) to break the backs of god, if I could buy you time
(Everyday)
(Everyday)
