Slowly slide
Towards the light
Hanging on a threat just trying
To stay alive
When we fail to
Compromise and see the signs
The weak and small
Will be the ones
Who pay the price
How to save a life
And how to make it right
After all the bridges burning behind
When the last in line
Stands alone in the fire
How to save a life
Out of luck
Out of touch
It seems the world is not enough
For all of us
The hour glass
Awaits and stands
But there are no hands to stop
The grains of sand
