Godasmo - Hourglass

New song from album Ättestupa Lyrics Hourglass I wake up in the dark, can’t remember yesterday The mirror stares me down, I don’t know the face I see There’s blood upon my hands and a silence in the house And a voice from deep inside that whispers “don’t walk out” I try to hold it tight, but it slips between my fingers Every promise that I made turned to ash and blew away There’s a beast inside of me That won’t sleep, that won’t break free I pray that it will let me go But it’s the reason I still don’t fold Take me from myself, take me from myself I’m not the owner of who I am This beast that I created Now it’s the one that holds my hand I shut the door, kill the light, pretend that I’m okay But the shadow on the wall moves and I’m nobody Every time I swear that this will be the last It laughs right in my face and throws me back down to the floor I try to hold it tight, but it slips between my fingers Every promise that I made turned to ash and blew away There’s a beast inside of me That won’t sleep, that won’t break free I pray that it will let me go But it’s the reason I still don’t fold Take me from myself, take me from myself I’m not the owner of who I am This beast that I created Now it’s the one that holds my hand (low, almost whispered) Who will hear me when I scream? Who will stay when I break down? If I let go, it takes me If I fight, it drags me No, no, no... I won’t let it win! No, no, no... I won’t let it win! There’s a beast inside of me But tonight I look it in the eyes and I don’t run Whether I lose or whether I win At least I know who I am Take me from myself... (whispered) Take me from myself...
