James Parm Hourglass / Wishing Well lyrics
Hourglass / Wishing Well
James Parm
GENRE Burning ships are piled to the sky as
A dead breeze carries our words like knives
To the centre of a concrete gate
Littered with the ruins of our failed escapes
“Easily the strongest of us all”
Spoke the wearer of the mask to the concrete wall
There’s never been an easy path
Even as the sand shapes the hourglass
Even if the first really do come last;
Lord knows the sun is burning fast
Are you afraid of the big bad wolf
Standing naked in the rain at the edge of the wood?
At the centre of a pitch black mine;
Only in your heart are you doing time
Gotta use your claws if you’re gonna climb
Sign away your life on a deadline
Honey I told you there’d be days like this
I know it’s hard getting over it
Throw those dreams in a wishing well
And I promise I’ll never tell
Honey I told you there’d be days like this
I know it’s hard getting over it
Throw those dreams in a wishing well
And I promise I’ll never tell
Honey I told you there’d be days like this
I know it’s hard getting over it
Throw those dreams in a wishing well
And I promise I’ll never tell
A dead breeze carries our words like knives
To the centre of a concrete gate
Littered with the ruins of our failed escapes
“Easily the strongest of us all”
Spoke the wearer of the mask to the concrete wall
There’s never been an easy path
Even as the sand shapes the hourglass
Even if the first really do come last;
Lord knows the sun is burning fast
Are you afraid of the big bad wolf
Standing naked in the rain at the edge of the wood?
At the centre of a pitch black mine;
Only in your heart are you doing time
Gotta use your claws if you’re gonna climb
Sign away your life on a deadline
Honey I told you there’d be days like this
I know it’s hard getting over it
Throw those dreams in a wishing well
And I promise I’ll never tell
Honey I told you there’d be days like this
I know it’s hard getting over it
Throw those dreams in a wishing well
And I promise I’ll never tell
Honey I told you there’d be days like this
I know it’s hard getting over it
Throw those dreams in a wishing well
And I promise I’ll never tell
