๐ Lyrics
Grey eyes hide what's inside
Insecurity; bereft of stable mind
The truth, a danger, better to avoid
You dragged me into the void
Every time I looked in your eyes
You looked away from me
But somewhere deep inside
I know it burned you alive
Hold out my aging hands
(Aging hands)
And as my eyes go blind
Too late to shift the sands
(Shift the sands)
Too late to turn back time
Before my memories go
Before I fade away
I needed you to know
I had to push you away
They say time is all we're needing
To mend our wounds and stop the bleeding
For me it did, I learned to forgive
But I won't forget
I couldn't hide
What I would seek I wouldn't find
From this I realized
Misguided hearts with good intentions
Could never see another's true dimensions
Once again you've broken me
A second-hand catastrophe
Passed from me to myself
Hold out my aging hands
(Aging hands)
And as my eyes go blind
Too late to shift the sands
(Shift the sands)
Too late to turn back time
Before my memories go
Before I fade away
I needed you to know
I had to push you away
In my mind, I see the halls of time
Epitaphs of light and dark
Intertwining for eternity
Obliterating all certainty
A ghost of what was supposed to be
Marred by what's inside of me
Now standing in a translucent world
White glass stares into black
I'm holding nothing back
From golden dust to rotting must
Decay will overtake us
You've wasted too much of my life
And forced my soul into an endless night
I am the winter flower wilting with the frost
But I am strong enough to cut my loss
Hold out my aging hands
(Aging hands)
And as my eyes go blind
Too late to shift the sands
(Shift the sands)
Too late to turn back time
Before my memories go
Before I fade away
I needed you to know
I had to push you away
Push you away
Insecurity; bereft of stable mind
The truth, a danger, better to avoid
You dragged me into the void
Every time I looked in your eyes
You looked away from me
But somewhere deep inside
I know it burned you alive
Hold out my aging hands
(Aging hands)
And as my eyes go blind
Too late to shift the sands
(Shift the sands)
Too late to turn back time
Before my memories go
Before I fade away
I needed you to know
I had to push you away
They say time is all we're needing
To mend our wounds and stop the bleeding
For me it did, I learned to forgive
But I won't forget
I couldn't hide
What I would seek I wouldn't find
From this I realized
Misguided hearts with good intentions
Could never see another's true dimensions
Once again you've broken me
A second-hand catastrophe
Passed from me to myself
Hold out my aging hands
(Aging hands)
And as my eyes go blind
Too late to shift the sands
(Shift the sands)
Too late to turn back time
Before my memories go
Before I fade away
I needed you to know
I had to push you away
In my mind, I see the halls of time
Epitaphs of light and dark
Intertwining for eternity
Obliterating all certainty
A ghost of what was supposed to be
Marred by what's inside of me
Now standing in a translucent world
White glass stares into black
I'm holding nothing back
From golden dust to rotting must
Decay will overtake us
You've wasted too much of my life
And forced my soul into an endless night
I am the winter flower wilting with the frost
But I am strong enough to cut my loss
Hold out my aging hands
(Aging hands)
And as my eyes go blind
Too late to shift the sands
(Shift the sands)
Too late to turn back time
Before my memories go
Before I fade away
I needed you to know
I had to push you away
Push you away
