Hourglass Lyrics

I've watched the whole world drowning in chemicals
Dissociative, but it takes its toll
Can I surpass time, or would I start to rust?
Depreciating, collecting dust
And I fear for myself as I fall away
In a cold deluded sense of fate
When the nightmares come, and the doubt sets in
Will the fever break,
or will I burn from within?

It's too late to feel, I've lost my breath
With the hands of time around my neck
Am I more than the pen that wrote the past
Or am I just the sand enslaved by the hourglass?

Will I live again, or will I fade to black?
Dehumanizing, when the heart attacks
Will I expire before my dreams unfold?
But if the future's so bright, the path should glow
As the walls melt
And the light fades
I'm letting quicksand take me
As the walls melt
And the light fades
I'm letting quicksand take me

It's too late to feel, I've lost my breath
With the hands of time around my neck
Am I more than the pen that wrote the past
Or am I just the sand enslaved by the hourglass?

If you look beyond the blindfold
You'll find the hole in my soul
One fear, one mind,
no hope, no time

If you look beyond the blindfold
You'll find the hole in my soul
I'm on the edge of my seat
Holding out for a sign

Trying to rewrite the storyline
It's too late to feel, I've lost my breath
With the hands of time around my neck
Am I more than the pen that wrote the past
Or am I just the sand enslaved by the hourglass?

It's too late to feel, I've lost my breath
With the hands of time around my neck
Am I just the pen that wrote the past
Or am I just the sand enslaved by the hourglass?
Fear is not my fate

Motionless in White was founded in 2005 by members Chris Motionless, who played guitar and lead vocals, Angelo Parente on drums, Frank Polumbo on guitar, and Kyle White on bass during high school. With a sound, at the time, being influenced by alternative rock, emo and post-hardcore bands, they then changed to melodic metalcore and gothic metalcore sound.
Within the year after the release of their demo, new member Josh Balz was added as the band's keyboardist, Frank Polumbo took over on bass and new members, Michael Costanza and TJ Bell, were added to the band as the new guitarists, moving Chris Motionless solely to lead vocals. They recorded their first EP The Whorror and released it the same year through Masquerade Recordings. In 2010, they released Creatures and even Infamous in 2012. The new album has a lot of industrial metal in it like Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie and Ministry. Read more on Last.fm.
