You stand there
on top of the hourglass
makes you wonder
how time went by
in the end
family and all friends disappear
you look around
and see what is left.
what is left, what is left
Bring it to an end
shut it down
life is ticking, ticking down
bring it to an end
shut it down
life is ticking, ticking down
I wish i could tear off that look upon your face
push a button and freeze things in it’s place
break the magic that makes us grow old
to re-live the stories our father’s told in the cold
Bring it to an end
shut it down
life is ticking, ticking down
bring it to an end
shut it down
life is ticking, ticking down
Bring it to an end
shut it down
life is ticking, ticking down
bring it to an end
shut it down
life is ticking, ticking down
