[Verse 1]
Fm
When pretending lends a helping hand
         C/E
We hold it close, so close, and 
never let it go
Fm
Then, the pen begins to write a 
story
        C/E
With an end that bends right out of 
our control


[Pre-Chorus]
 Fm
How did we get so jaded? I don't 
know

Was it the white lies feeding our 
egos?
 C/E
I never valuated minutes I burned 
through

Is that just how it goes?
Db
Seconds I wasted, I was fixated

You're devastated, sorry to say
C
I can't fix it, is this where I give
 in?


[Chorus]
    Fm                  Db     Eb
I'm falling through the hourglass
  Cm        Fm              Db   
And I don't think I'll ever make 
   Eb
it back
  Cm           Fm               
So I throw stones at walls I'll 
Db
never climb
 Ab           Eb/G
Victim to the sands of time

The hourglass


[Verse 2]
Fm
Time is strange, it's ever-flowing
             C/E
Never going back, it moves, but only
 in one way
 Fm
Turn the page, look back at what you
 wrote
             C/E
Do you still feel the same?

I'll bet your mind has changed


[Pre-Chorus]
Fm
How did it get so scary? I don't 
know

Was it the hard life starving our 
egos
 C/E
I never valued minutes I burned 
through

Is that just how it goes?
 Db
Seconds I wasted, I was fixated

You're devastated, sorry to say
C
I can't fix it, is this where I give
 in?
