Hourglass Songtext
von Hurray for the Riff Raff

This time next year you′ll be gone, babe
I don't know what I′ll do, babe
You hold me by a string, babe
You let me wear your ring, babe

Take a little time to process
You got big dreams, gotta re-access
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you

Nobody here really knows me
They just wanna tell me stories
About the friends that they met in college
And how famous people are their parents


I always feel like a dirty kid
I used to eat out of the garbage
I know I should probably get over it
But somehow it feels I'm still in it

I know you see me out shining, yeah
Tell me, all the time, I think you're lying
You hold you my hand so patient
Sometimes I yell and scream and throw shit
And then the moment′s over
And suddenly a boulder
Is just sand
In an hourglass

Then the moment′s over
And suddenly a boulder
Is just sand
In an hourglass
