The Harder They Fall

THE HARDER THEY FALL

Sands through the hourglass bury the little time we have left

Sounds ring in my ears drowning the love of my past

Crushing burdens are chips on my shoulders made of bricks

Building higher one by one

The higher it climbs the harder they fall

When the outside noise is dominant

That's the power louder than them all

Blood runs deeper than any ocean from any corner of the earth

Mud rising knee deep killing any feeling until I am numb

Massive mountains of fear in the wake of a avalanche

Building higher one by one

The higher it climbs the harder they fall

And there is only one constant

Continuously loving me through it all
