Contemplation in Time Songtext
von Predatory Void

You stiffen more, becoming fragile
Time keeps whispering, "Be quick before you lose your chance!"
The tinted mirror of your face
My eyes are drying out

Each time I touch your face
Sand pours down my hands
Your eyes fill up with salt and life′s regrets

One day we'll both get tired
Of turning over the hourglass
Of empty cupboards with spider webs and dust

Sands of time seeping through the glass
Following the grim that fingers
I don′t mind shaking hands
I'm losing time again, again


Each time I comb your hair
Stressful semi even console me
"They will grow back"
We both know that they won't

Your parchment paper hands resemble moon lakes
Dry and cold
These cracks I see myself in will soon take over
Will soon take over!

One day we′ll both get tired
Of turning over the hourglass
Of emptying cupboards with spider webs and dust

One day we′ll both get tired
Of turning over the hourglass
One day we'll both get tired
I′m losing time again, again!
