[Verse 1]
You drove my friends off with a smile
And said "the things I do for you"
And then she blacked out all my windows, so now I sleep all afternoon
'Cause I can't wait to escape this fate
Where my heart sees clear but head's opaque
Now I feel no fear cause this life feels fake
When I'm all fucked up and
And I can't think straight
So she says "hey, let me think for you
Got a lot to say, need to think it through"
As the summer fades, and I just won't do
Couldn't keep you warm, need someone new

[Chorus 1]
I heard your father passed
But in the end he changed his stance
Turn your facе down to the floor
Accept the olivе branch
Graduate top of your class, then leave for school and don't come back
Time keeps slipping through my fingers like an hourglass

[Verse 2]
Yeah, it's been a long time since I felt whole, yeah
I thought you might have felt the same, what do I know? (What do I know?)
No trust for the things that I love as they all burn to ashes and I turn to dust
I will immolate and decay
Just so you can get the smoke until my memory fades
Until my whole motherfucking generation has aged
Out of life, out of time, straight into our graves
I'm tryna purge the urge to return to the soil
I want to learn to love life before I leave this mortal coil
So I'm doing what I can just to make my time count
We all die sometime, even the sun'll burn out
Yeah, the stars grow cold as my time on earth passes
So tell me why the fuck I ought to worry about taxes
Give me one reason I should worry about tomorrow
When I'm absolutely certain that the future's full of sorrow
[Chorus 2]
You heard that I relapsed
I swore I left it in the past
Turn my face down to the floor accept my circumstance
Turn my energy to mass
Nothing in this world will last, no
Time keeps slipping through my fingers like an hourglass

[Outro]
We live alone, we die alone, we live life on credit (Hourglass!)
We say goodbye and then we die and live to regret it (Hourglass!)
We live alone, we die alone, we live life on credit (Hourglass!)
We say goodbye and then we die and live to regret it
