Sand Trap

The eyes of the pyramids are gushing out wet sand
Slowly they are swallowed by a hole in the horizon
Sinking rather slowly, trying not to wake the tomb cat
Counting down sunsets, melting in a sand trap
Idle where they stand, holding on with six hands
Buried in the hourglass, sinking into quicksand
Counting down sunsets, melting in a sand trap
Walking down sunsets, melting in a sand trap

Idle where they stand, holding on with six hands
Buried in the hourglass, sinking into quicksand
Counting down sunsets, melting in a sand trap
Walking down sunsets, melting in a sand trap
