Each moment opens
an hourglass of stars spilling
And from way up here
no one there will look any
bigger than a grain of sand.

lyrics

Sometimes you gotta chase your self
Sometimes you're gonna let yourself down
and, boy, let me tell you:
It's gonna hurt like hell the first time
but don't you do it too much to get used to it

One day I'm gonna let you in
cuz I'm shining like the sun when you're around
But I'm wrapped up in curtains, and
I've got some nails to keep it pinned down

All my head is ringing, and
All of me is singing
From the inside
I think about you every day
(I can be patient, or at least I can try)
(And that's just as well)

Please, please be careful with yourself
Please, please I only want to, love
Oh, let me tell ya:
Even if I had known it was gonna hurt like hell
I can't afford to regret my whole self

I can't afford to lose my whole way
Can I be your eyes in the darkness?
I think about you every day
(I'll be as warm as the sunbeams)
(I'll be as soft as a cool breeze)

I've got staples in my head
like, where you been?
I wasn't ready for the time
to let you in
and I'm crying
at all the time I've wasted feeling rejected
when I'm just wretched
