The Journey Into
Hourglass Lyrics

For a moment, touch the sky
Experience a fleeting moment of pure joy and freedom

For a moment, you can fly
In that moment, you are capable of achieving anything

If sunlight will fall today
If positivity and hope are present

For a moment, who am I
During this moment, one finds a deeper understanding of oneself

For a moment, for a try
Embracing the opportunity to explore and take chances

As the barrier falls today
Breaking down the obstacles that hinder progress

All too soon, what am I
Realizing the brevity of existence and questioning one's purpose

All too soon, you and I
Both individuals involved experience the fleeting nature of time

Fly to the end of time
Embarking on a journey that transcends the limitations of time

All too soon, I'm falling fast
Feeling a sense of acceleration towards an uncertain future

All too soon, a fading past
The past starts to lose its grip and recede

Is gone with no reason or rhyme
The past disappears without any logical explanation

Spending life so helpless
Living a life filled with vulnerability and powerlessness

My world has fallen apart
The foundations of one's reality have crumbled

Spending life so friendless
Navigating through life without meaningful connections or support

I'm praying for one new start
Hoping for an opportunity to begin again and change one's circumstances

Taking on the challenges
Facing the difficulties and obstacles that arise

That I'm faced with everyday
Encountering these challenges on a daily basis

Facing all the differences
Confronting the variations and disparities in life

So things will change someday
Doing so in the hope of eventual progress and transformation

I'm not ready for this
Feeling unprepared and overwhelmed by the situation

How could I be ready for this?
Questioning one's ability and readiness to face the circumstances

I need to find another way
Seeking an alternative approach or solution

To hold on for one more day
Finding the strength to persevere for just a little longer

It's deliverance that I need
Yearning for liberation and salvation from the hardships

With no warnings left to heed
No more cautionary signs or advice to consider

As I rise above the restlessness
Elevating oneself beyond the state of uneasiness and agitation

I find a sense of carelessness
Discovering a feeling of being unconcerned and free

A sense of loss, a sense of life
Experiencing both emptiness and vitality simultaneously

A pretense of my recklessness
An illusion of acting impulsively and without regard

Trying to wait patiently
Attempting to remain calm and composed while waiting

For things that carry weight
Anticipating events and circumstances of significant importance

A greater hope of faithfulness
Holding onto the belief that things will eventually fall into place

Is hope I can't create
Recognizing that hope cannot be manufactured or forced

Looking for the solution
Searching for the answer or resolution

Or an answer from the sky
Seeking guidance and clarity from a higher power

Things will start to fall in place
The pieces of the puzzle will begin to fit together

When I live outside the lie
By living authentically and truthfully, everything will align

In the dark I close my eyes
In moments of solitude and introspection, shutting out external distractions

There's an image of you deep inside
A lingering presence and memory of a significant person

And every day that passes by
With the passing of time, a part of oneself fades away

Part of me is gone with the tide
A piece of oneself has been lost and washed away like a wave

My thoughts reflect too far
Contemplating deeply and reaching beyond immediate concerns

As I wonder where you are
Questioning the whereabouts and state of the significant person

This fear has found a home
Fear has settled and established itself within one's being

And lies deep within the bone
Fear has become ingrained in one's essence and core

On a clear and distant night
During a serene and far-off evening

With no heat from summer light
Where warmth and light from summer are absent

I begin to see the end
Glimpsing the conclusion or resolution on the horizon

In the wake of fate's new trend
Following the aftermath of destiny's changing course

I have no way to clear my sight
Feeling unable to gain clarity and vision

I have no sense of wrong or right
Lacking a clear distinction between right and wrong

As I force my will to go
Attempting to push oneself forward despite uncertainty

A direction no map can show
Moving in a path that is not defined or guided by conventional means

And as I find a way
Discovering a path or solution

Down the wandering road
Along the meandering and uncertain journey

I feel a sense of sadness
Experiencing a profound feeling of sorrow

I steal a sense of hope
Secretly obtaining a glimmer of optimism

I have what's in my mind
Possessing what lies within one's thoughts

What I need is what I can find
Discovering that what one truly requires is attainable

On this road that leads me down
Following a path that guides towards a lower point

While my head spins 'round and 'round
Simultaneously feeling disoriented and overwhelmed mentally

Now the storm, the storm is raging
A metaphorical tempest of chaos and turbulence is occurring

And I feel it inside tonight
Sensing the emotional and internal turmoil intensify

And since the norm is always changing
Acknowledging the constant evolution and fluctuation of societal expectations

I can't find where I stand in the light
Struggling to determine one's position and identity amidst the uncertainty

All the lack of care I've shown
Recognizing the apathy and indifference displayed in the past

Has left me lost without a home
Resulting in a feeling of displacement and rootlessness

I'm playing roles not meant for me
Taking on personas and responsibilities that do not align with one's true self

I'm making goals not meant to be
Setting ambitions and objectives that are not in harmony with one's authentic desires

For a moment what would I give
Contemplating the sacrifices one would be willing to make temporarily

To see the day end this night
Yearning for the painful period to come to an end

All too soon I'm forced to live
Being compelled to endure and continue surviving

With no dawn in my sight
Perceiving no signs of a brighter future ahead

Where do I stand
Seeking clarity regarding one's position and purpose

Can't someone tell me?
Desiring guidance and direction from another person

I've been searching
Engaging in a relentless quest for answers and meaning

Searching all this time
Dedicating a considerable duration to the search

It's not what I planned
Realizing that life did not unfold according to one's intentions

But something tells me
A gut feeling or intuition suggests

I've been waiting too long for a sign
Recognizing that the search for a sign or signal has extended beyond a reasonable length of time

What I feel I've had to steal
One has had to conceal and take by force what is truly felt

What I've got is all that's real
Accepting that what one possesses is the only tangible reality

What I've got I've had to steal
One has acquired what they have through secretive and unauthorized means

What I feel is all that's real
Emphasizing the importance and authenticity of one's emotions

And the storm, the storm is raging
The chaotic turmoil continues to intensify

And I feel it inside tonight
The inner turmoil and unrest persists and grows stronger

And since the norm is always changing
Although expectations shift consistently

I can't find where I stand in the light
It remains challenging to comprehend one's position amidst the uncertainty

In my search I found the path
While seeking answers, one stumbled upon the way forward

Now my mind is freed at last
Having achieved mental liberation and release

All thoughts that plague me
The negative and troublesome thoughts that torment one's mind

Are stripped away
Slowly being removed and discarded

As I find the meaning
Discovering the significance and purpose behind one's experiences

In the dawn of day
During the early moments of a new beginning

In the forefront of my mind
At the forefront of one's consciousness

Is what I left behind
The past and its baggage that one has moved on from

In this long journey's end
Arriving at the conclusion of a lengthy and challenging journey

I'm taken to a new light
Being guided towards a fresh perspective and enlightenment

What I had from the start
Recognizing the inherent qualities and assets one possessed initially

Is the thing that was right
Realizing that what was present from the beginning was indeed correct

If only I had seen
Expressing regret for failing to perceive earlier

Deliverance was in me
The power to liberate oneself was always present within

And the storm, the storm was raging
The storm of chaos and turbulence continued to cause disturbance

I could feel it inside that night
Sensing the inner turmoil and unrest during that particular night

And since I was set on changing
As one was determined to bring about change

I have found what to stand for
Discovering one's principles and values to uphold

And what is right
Identifying what is morally and ethically correct

It's deliverance that I've found
Uncovering the liberation and salvation one sought after

With no warnings left to sound
No more signals or indications of danger remaining

'cause I rose above the restlessness
By transcending the state of uneasiness and agitation

To find a sense of carelessness
Discovering a feeling of being unconcerned and carefree

A sense of loss, a sense of life
Experiencing both emptiness and vitality simultaneously

Deliverance from my recklessness
Finding liberation from one's impulsive and careless behavior
