Life In An Hourglass Lyrics

BREATHE IN BREATHE OUT • THAT’S WHAT THEY SAID TO ME • SHE SAYS WITH A SMILE • I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES AND I SEE HOME • SHE’S ALL HE HAS LEFT • SHE FALLS TO THE FLOOR AND TIME STANDS STILL • HE KNEELS TO HER SIDE • I CAN’T BREATHE • HEART ATTACK • OH DOCTOR • WAKE UP • THIS CAN’T BE REAL • DON’T LEAVE ME BABY NO • EYES ROLLED BACK AND IT’S TAKING IT’S HOLD ON YOU • OH GOD I’M RIGHT HERE • SOMEONE PLEASE DO SOMETHING • CLOSE YOUR EYES • DON’T TURN YOUR BACK ON ME • I’VE NEVER BEEN AS GOOD AS YOU TO HOLD MY HEAD UP HIGH • HOLD YOUR BREATH • THIS WON’T HURT A BIT • I AM ALONE WITH EVERYTHING AND I’M ON MY OWN AGAIN • THERE’S SOMETHING MISSING DEEP INSIDE OF ME

WAKE ME UP • AS MY MIND DRIFTS AWAY FROM MY BODY I SEE MYSELF TOSS AND TURN • AND I CAN’T BE THE ONE TO WAKE MYSELF UP FROM THE DEEPEST SLEEP I’LL EVER KNOW • AWAKE ME FROM SLEEPING • AWAKE ME UP

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
