You are the sand in an hourglass
Telling me I'm running out of time
You're my peers, far ahead
Telling me I'm falling behind
You are everything I couldn't be
And everything I should've been
You are everything and nothing
And we are long time friends
You are distaste and teary eyes
When I see my own reflection
You are panic, you are fear
When I don't know my direction
You are the thoughts I over think
And the words I fail to say
You are everything and nothing
I wish you would go away
You are weakness, you are plight
But it's from you I find my strength
For it is when you tried to drown me
That I truly learned to swim
I'm not lost, but simply wandering
I know my way home again
I can rid myself of you
'Cause I know you are not my friend
