Hourglass lyrics

[Verse 1]

If you could see your seconds in an hourglass

If you could see the minutes of a life you had

Would you run and would you try

To win it back?

If you can see a future in a photograph

If you could see the light that you wish you had

Could you be strong and carry on

With what you have?

[Pre-Chorus]

Why we wasting life?

Should be chasing life

[Chorus]

If we’re breathing for the very last time

I don’t wanna hold onto goodbyes

If there’s no tomorrow

You better make it last tonight

If we’re standing when the walls come down

If we make it to the final round

If we’re here tomorrow

We’ll live it better than we did last night

[Verse 2]

If you were on your knees, would you take a stand?

If you were in deep, would you take my hand?

Could you lie and lose your pride

To live again?

If you could wake up and see through yourself

Could you find a room to blame someone else?

Could you change in just a day

And cry for help?

[Pre-Chorus]

Why we wasting life?

Should be chasing life

[Chorus]

If we’re breathing for the very last time

I don’t wanna hold onto goodbyes

If there’s no tomorrow

You better make it last tonight

If we’re standing when the walls come down

If we make it to the final round

If we’re here tomorrow

We’ll live it better than we did last night

[Bridge]

‘Cause you’re not alone, no, you’re not alone

We’ve all been wasting time

No, it’s not too late for us to make it right

But we still have today

[Chorus]

If we’re breathing for the very last time

I don’t wanna hold onto goodbyes

If there’s no tomorrow

You better make it last tonight

If we’re standing when the walls come down

If we make it to the final round

If we’re here tomorrow

We’ll live it better than we did last night
