Hourglass by Mipso Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Does it make your heart beat fast
Turning over hourglass after hourglass 'til they’re gone?
Staring at a faded map
Never stopped to clear a path, now you’re walking alone

[Chorus]
I meant to make it before, but the making’s no good anymore
I meant to make it by now, but the making’s no good anyhow

[Verse 2]
Are you staying up all night
Staring at a candlelight that flickers ‘til the dawn?
Can you hear it coming down?
Is it just a passing sound or the calling of the fall?

[Chorus]
I meant to make it before, but the making’s no good anymore
I meant to make it by now, but the making’s no good anyhow

[Verse 3]
You’ve been putting on a mask
Did you take the time to find if the mirror knows when to lie?
I’ve been moving real fast
Turning over hourglass after hourglass 'til they’re gone
[Chorus]
I meant to make it before, but the making’s no good anymore
I meant to make it by now, but the making’s no good anyhow
