The spiral Hourglass (Rasta-Ska Re-take)

The sand runs… The glass splits… Fall Awake, Awake to Fall Awake The sand gnaws marrow in the spiral jaw, Every grain a tooth, every second a claw. Walls lean inward, the spiral pulls tight, No room to breathe in the swallowing night. “Curl, scream, drown… The spiral ends after every beginning but beginning before it ever ends I awaken — breathless, shaking, drenched. I awaken — but I never wake. The spiral hourglass turns its grin, Every ending drags me deeper in. The corner collapses, the shadows reach, Their hands are teeth, their whispers preach: Your screams are theirs, your name their hymn, Every fracture births another dream. The floor is sand — the sand is rising. The glass is cracked — the cracks are eyes. The spiral laughs — the spiral feasts. The spiral is the beast. Fall awake, Awake to Fall Awake Every breath is borrowed, every breath is stolen. Fall Awake, Awake to Fall Awake, The spiral hourglass is never broken. [Lemgthy super precision and technically skilled and crafty lead guitar solo] I awaken — breathless, shaking, drenched. I awaken — but I never wake. The spiral hourglass feeds on screams, Every waking is another dream. Wake up… wake up… wake up… .…Awakening to Never Awakening!!
