My hourglass is out of sand,
time just slipped right through my hand...

Too many days, too many nights,
too many ways, can't get this right...

You're everything that I've known,
all the love that I've shown...

I've lived inside this cage,
a prisoner of my rage...

I'm pleading, and bleeding,
I can't stop this needing tonight...

This is the poem I can't write,
I've struggled with it day and night...

I've felt the pain, I've felt the pressure,
I've done it worse, I've done it better...

The way you left,
felt so cold...

I wake up, try to face the day,
but it's always just the same...

I know you think I'm a baby,
you said, "Maybe you should look...

So I made mistakes,
and I paid the price...

Looking down it's hard to see,
that the sky is there for me...
