Eidolon - Only The Sand Knows

[Verse 1]

We were never a headline
Never thunder or flame
Just two shadows learning
Each other’s names
I didn’t feel the seconds
Till they started to weigh
Love taught me too late
What it takes to stay

[Pre-Chorus]

You don’t hear the hour
When the glass turns thin
You only hear the silence
When the fall sets in

[Chorus]

I would turn it over
If turning was mine
But the sand knows when
It’s done with time
You don’t fight the ending
You don’t demand
Some things are decided
By falling sand

[Verse 2]

I’ve worn other futures
Like borrowed skin
Tried to live past you
Tried to live within
Every road I followed
Learned your shape
Like loss leaves fingerprints
On every escape

[Pre-Chorus]

I don’t ask what might have been
I don’t curse the cost
Some truths arrive only
After they’re lost

[Chorus]

I would turn it over
If I thought it would lie
But the sand knows when
Not to try
You don’t rewrite meaning
You understand
Some things are decided
By falling sand

[Bridge]

Time doesn’t hate us
It doesn’t choose sides
It gives us the moment
Then walks us outside
I learned to stop begging
For the hour to bend
Some love isn’t meant
To happen again

[Break]

I don’t wait in the echo
I don’t call your name
I let memory settle
Like dust in a frame

[Final Chorus]

I won’t turn it over
I won’t pretend
The glass didn’t break
The moment it ended
You don’t win forever
You understand
Some things are decided
By falling sand

[Outro]

If I meet you again
In another design
I’ll know you at once
And leave you behind
Not out of bitterness
Not out of fear
But because we were right
Right there
