ARCHITECTS
"The Empty Hourglass"

[Intro:]
Every moment is dead to me

Do you remember?
Because I can't forget
The saddest story of all that ever was or will be
Laid out before me

[Pre-Chorus:]
A living heart attack
Play it back, play it back

[Chorus:]
Take my eyes, I cannot see sense, past and future tense
Every moment is dead to me
Safe and sound, anywhere but here
I see it crystal clear, but it means nothing to me
It means nothing to me
It means nothing to me

Have you seen a future
Filled with regret?
Breathe and count to ten
Start over again
You wanna run away
Just let yourself decay

[Pre-Chorus:]
A living heart attack
Play it back, play it back

[Bridge:]
The empty hourglass
We're going nowhere fast
There's no more time to kill
If time is standing still

[Chorus:]
Take my eyes, I cannot see sense, past and future tense
Every moment is dead to me
Safe and sound, anywhere but here
I see it crystal clear, but it means nothing to me

[Post-Chorus:]
It means nothing to me
It means nothing to me
Play it back, play it back
Over and over again, over and over again

[Outro:]
The empty hourglass
We're going nowhere fast
There's no more time to kill
If time is standing still
