Klessidra Lyrics - Kanjante

An hourglass of light. 

It was about the time we spent wasting our lives away 

watching ourselves from distance, 

our reflection on the glass. 

Scouring an island of sand, the grains like our days, 

they slip out of our hands. 

Yet the tears would never bring them back, 

holes in the wall are building the cracks. 

It's our time to rise from what we have been 

we may be too late but the spirit never grows weak. 

And I wonder where the shining circle of my light has gone 

We've been so blind to be sucked dry by the Gods 

The sand is pouring in like a flood down the leak 

drowning us in thunderstorms 

(Hear me) - The echoes of my love 

(I am) - rumbling through this glass 

(Your) - it's so crystal clear 

(Promised land) - let me out my dear 

(Hear me) - The glances of my love 

(I am) - echoing in this hourglass 

(Your) - it's so crystal clear 

(Promised land) - let me out my dear! 

Expanding my being in the universe 

the air I breath tastes like revenge 

but my eyes are kept bright like morning stars to fool the one who gathered us in the sand. 

Take my hand and hold it tight, my love; 

and I swear we're gonna fly above 

the laws of the Gods, may they forgive our odds. 

Let's take this to a whole new level of sin. 

(Hear me) - The echoes of my love 

(I am) - rumbling through this glass 

(Your) - it's so crystal clear 

(Promised land) - let me out my dear 

(Hear me) - The glances of my love 

(I am) - echoing in this hourglass 

(Your) - it's so crystal clear 

(Promised land) - let me out my dear! 

You stupid fuck, you're going down below in the sand. 

The secrets of your kind should have stayed in your mind 

learn how to keep your mouth shut. 

Now feel the gold leaving your bones 

and all of your hopes cracking up like stones. 

The hourglass overturned, the pain departed. 

It all ends how it fucking started.
