Текст песни Hourglass

He comes out of silence and opens the door

Waiting for someone to die

Deep in her heart she is hoping for

The long-lost one

How could she know when the promise was made?

So how can it end in this way?

Then four gray walls come tumbling down

And just because her skin was brown

No wonder she has grown so fast

Those four gray walls were meant to last

The friends there that she can count upon

Take orders, but always the spirit holds

Scenes of the never-ending trend

She waits for the hours and hours to pass

She looks to the hourglass

Then four gray walls come tumbling down

And just because her skin was brown

No wonder she has grown so fast

Those four gray walls were meant to last

Those four gray walls were meant to last

As the shadows come down

She sees him leaving

She can recall

Seems that this fire has lost its form

The form of the hourglass

The four gray walls came tumbling down

And just because her skin was brown

No wonder she has grown so fast

Those four gray walls were meant to last

Those four gray walls were meant to last

Those four gray walls

Four gray walls
