[Chorus]

Watch the hourglass drain itself, watch the smiles grow forced

In retrospect, nothing turned out the way I thought; all is lost

I guess I'm overly philosophical, but that's just my cross

'cause every time I stop to watch the present I see the corpse, decayed, of what once was

Time's our guide on the path of life, and it's leading us astray as the blood turns cold

[Chorus:] all love lost

We all feed on expectation and dreams; damn whoever gets in the way

The loved one today might be the scapegoat to be;

Fuck or get fucked-it's always been that way

[Chorus:] all is lost

Sweet promises whispered by lovers at night, given with passion before

Say them again, look into my eyes and tell me- who's the whore?

The deceiver will think himself deceived

Forming a truth of his own, as they always do

It's only a matter of what you want to believe

But in the end we've got nothing-Everything's lost

Time's our guide on the path of life, and it's leading us astray

As the blood turns cold. Everything's lost...
