Sands of time Running through my fingers My life's sliping away And I fell nothing Swallow the tears, eat the pain It's worth the degradation Eat the pain Behind the smile, I feel nothing I reach out to touch But I'm not really there The reflection in the mirror Can't really be me I see no connection with who I wanted to be Drink another glas Swallow these pills At the end of the rainbow You take the bitter The bitter with the sweet Behind the smile, I feel nothing I reach out to touch But I'm not really there When love dies The angels cry Here I am Alone, Alone in a crowd Behind the smile, I feel nothing I reach out to touch But I'm not really there
