Does seeing our hourglasses change the way you see me?
Would we waste time watching each grain fall instead of spending time doing what we love?
All the hours we could instead spend running or watching the stars above?

Does the difference in grains of sand between our glasses keep you from feeling happy? Like those few grains left for you would be different alone
All those hours together we would spend building our home

Would seeing our hourglasses change our life quality?
Living up every moment knowing it was only so long
Would we crash and burn knowing when those grains of sand would be completely gone?

Would you let our hourglasses tell us what we could be?
Or would we fight against the clock and try to break free?
