J-Birds - Hourglass Lyrics

When the darkness sheds light for the tears of the lost
It also illuminates the route that we're on and the paths we've crossed
The past is gone the question to focus on now is, what road are you on

Time flies past like sand in the hourglass in a constant descent
Never stopping forever changing, it's the world's greatest incentive
To answer the question for yourself, what road are you on

To become aware of where you are, you must sometimes ask how you got there
To understand the transition from who you were to who you are to find out where you're going
To then ask the question Is this where I want to be, what road are you on

Falling down may not seem like the answer but it could be just what you need
Because you can see your road from a different perspective when you're down on your knees
To plant your feet and rise again knowing now, what road are you on

One day the road will end the pavement will be gone
The path you walked will still remain as a testament to all you've done
So scatter your street with good intentions that others can carry on
But first you must ask yourself, what road are you on
