Oh, I don't really mind watching the sands of time
As it passes by, hold me closer
I met you in my home when I was on my throne
And you wanted to take me off
Oh there we go, down the line
Through the sands of time
A shattered hourglass of bone

When you're caught up in your mind
When you're caught up in your mind
When you're taking off some time
Turning left or turning right
You'll be missing all the signs
But you'd rather stay in bed
Oh, do you feel satisfied when our heads collide?
We have to compromise, so meet me closer
You won't be here for long, but where do you belong?

Where does anybody belong?
Oh there we go, down the line
Through the sands of time
A shattered hourglass of bone
When you're caught up in your mind
When you're caught up in your mind
When you're taking off some time

Turning left or turning right
You'll be missing all the signs
But you'd rather stay in bed
You write your own timeline so act when the time's right
So that you are still satisfied with your life, make it right write your own timeline so act when the time's right
So that you are still satisfied with your life, make it right

Oh there we go, down the line
Through the sands of time
A shattered hourglass of bone
When you're caught up in your mind
When you're caught up in your mind
When you're taking off some time

Turning left or turning right
You'll be missing all the signs
But you'd rather stay in bed
