  • What a beautiful song, I've never heard it until I was listening to Pandora and it came on just now. Wow what's so funny is it's 2am and I couldn't sleep, I couldn't take the way I was treated by my boss, and quit my job yesterday, and I woke up worrying and trying to figure out what to do next....And this song came on like it was meant for me to hear. Life's like an hourglass glued to the table...I'm breathing, and it will be okay....

  • 5 persons died of suffocation !

  • thumbs up if greys anatomy

  • Thank you so much! oh my gosh i have been trying to find this song for years because i couldn't remember the lyrics to look it up. thanks a ton! love this song <3

  • Love this song..(: But its extreamly anoyying to look down at the comments and see people asking for "thumbs up" to do something.. i understand some of the people really need a little push to make them do something, but the majority of them just want the top comment. Grow up.

  • I'm thinking of singing this at the talent show next year. Maybe I'll post a cover first and see what people think... Maybe

  • 5 people have a small hourglass and wont have time to come to with there mistakes then they will suffocate because they forget how to breath

  • "And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd, these words are my diaries screaming out loud."

    That's how you know she's poured her heart and soul into the song. She laid it all out for people to see.

  • This god damn this song used to play ALL THE TIME at work -_-

    Now it's stuck in my head and I need to play it to get it out.

  • I appear to be experiencing a musical renaissance. I used to like stuff like three days grace, rise against, etc. Now I find myself falling in love with songs like this as I hopelessly sway to the beat... perhaps I'm outgrowing my cynicism or maybe, just maybe, I'm putting too much stock into my musical tastes changing... I don't know, and I've rambled on for far too long. Good bye youtube people!

  • My little sister died a while ago. Her hourglass was just to short. Hourglasses are different sizes and you cant make them bigger, It is just so sad.

  • I absolutely love when she goes acapella it gives me chills

  • thank you so much for putting a sownload link in the description!!! i have been looking for a half a hour for a reliable download that dosnt take a hour! :D

  • It means you can't stop the time from running out or flip it over to get more time.. lol

  • whats this song about?

  • That little shit clip at the end ruined it.

  • What does "Life's like an hourglass glued to the table" mean?

  • @MsDiehardTwihard if an hourglass is glued to the table then its stuck and the sand is left to fall all the way to one end. you can't do anything to change that, or make it go faster, or slower. the sand is stuck going one way until it's reached the end. Life is like that because once it's started, you cant make time go faster or slower, and eventually it ends

  • What's the song at the end???

  • at first i thought taylor swift sang dis :p

  • wow!!!

  • Comment removed

  • One of the few songs I've ever ever heard in my lifetime where the artist is singing for the audience; not to the audience. God, breathing never felt so good until I heard this song :)

  • Apparently she didn't breathe at all when singing because this entire song is just a run on sentence.

  • This song it about her friend who got pregnant at a very young age..I admire this song<3 :)

  • this was in greys anatomy <3

  • But my god, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles :)

  • This song is always awesome. i love her voice! Thumbs up if you agree

  • this song came up on my pandora account and now i can't stop listening!!!

  • i love this song ssssssoooooooooo much lol

  • Hahahaha, I'm sorry, I love this song but I just found a loophole.

    I mean, if it's like an hourglass glued to the table, couldn't you just turn the table over?

    I mean..

    I just realized that.

  • @KrazKate Maybe the table is really big?

  • @KrazKate Maybe the table is glued to the floor? XD

  • loovvee this song! :O

  • Woww, I Discover This Song Becuz I Heard It In A Gas Station,

    Lmfao.

    i dig It. <3

  • @TheMissML and @ReganChic I think this song is really about everything in life. I think its about how everyone struggles, but you can't change the past. So instead of stressing over that fact all you can do is breathe

  • My mom claims this song is about an abortion.

  • @ReganChic The first part yess, I think so. At first I thought it was divorce or something, but that makes way more sense.

  • @ReganChic my mom says the same thing!

  • it reminds me of someone writing about a friend or relative who is an alcoholic. but that's just me :)

  • What's the message of this song?

  • @demiselena56 I think it's a song she wrote to her record label. But I'm not 100% on that.

  • Lifes like an hour glass gluewed to the table  buetiful!!!

  • I Love This Song!!!

  • I freakin luv thos song lyk no joke!!!

  • "And life's like an hourglass glued to the table"

    Nothing can be truer. Once you've flipped it, it's stuck, and you can't speed it up, slow it down, turn it back, or stop it. And once all the sands fallen, there's no more to fall, no rewind button, so you'd better just make up all your mistakes while you still can.

  • @annezilla200 What I dont like is that she never bothered to think outside of the box. Just turn the table on its side? Or flip it upside down.

  • @annezilla200 i just love your explanation of this song its just so true. there really no turning back time. no matter how bad things get in life we all just have to push on though and try to in joy the things we have to do. just in joy life we are given. its just sad to see people out there that have come to the end of there road and realized that the things they once did not in joy weren't that bad after all but now to late to go back and share the happiness with the people they love.

  • @annezilla200 if you think about it when it really comes down to it all, when there are things that are out of your control there is only really one thing left to do is just to breath, and trust that at some point it will all be ok.

  • @annezilla200 or make all your good deeds while u still can :)

  • only one person disliked but that was 1 tooo many i love her voice

  • <3 this song

    

  • "There's a light at each end of the tunnel,

    you shout cuz you're just as far in as you'll ever be out,

    and those mistakes you made,

    you'll just make them again if you only try turning around."

    First time I heard those lines, I almost started crying because it described me to a tee. I had become trapped in my own little whirlpool, and I'd tried to stop making the same "mistakes", but failed every time, and I knew I'd never be able to get out. Took me a long time to find a way out.

  • i love when she says 'you can tell he's been down for a while but my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles' You know when you can just tell from one look that a complete stranger or even someone you don't know that well is going through total hell and doing it completely unnoticed. you want so much to help, but you know it's not you're place. that's what it reminds me of ;( this is such a purely beutiful song

  • loved it till 4:09

  • woohoo theres only 1 dislike!!!!!!! this song is amazing!!!!!!!! x)

  • "Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while,

    But, my God, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles"

    - I think this whole song describes my life right now, especially that line. Breathe [ 2 A.M. ] is such a beautiful song. I wish I could write something as beautiful & perfect as this. But you can't jump the track we're like cars on a cable & life's like an hour glass glued to the table. (:

  • the song at the end is BUMPPPPINN!!!

  • Greatest song ever Lmao

  • Who remembers when this song was on Grey's Anatomy? I didn't hear this at first on it I knew it already but who remembers it?

  • @miyanagirl It was on the second part of the episode with the unexploded grenade in the guy's chest. It played as Meredith pulled it out and walked out of the room, right before Dylan blew up.

  • 1 person suffocated cause they forgot to breath

  • @wierdoo32 lets make tht 3 people

  • @wierdoo32 umm thats not possible you would pass out and your body would start breathing again smart one :)

  • @wierdoo32 *breathe.

    Breathe is the action of taking in a breath.

  • @KrazKate Oops.. haha sorry :P

  • Comment removed

  • they played this at my grandpa's funeral....<\3

  • @XxBerrybug55xX N'aww I'm sorry thats so sad.

  • my best friend sang this at the variety show we had last year at school. i cried. its such a beautiful song

  • I think the song is meant to be vague so that it means something different to each individual listening. She says it in the song, "These words are my diary screaming out loud," saying that the song is about her life experiences. She then continues saying, "But I know that you'll use them however you want to," showing that not everything has a specific meaning, but is unique to the heart of the listener.

    She even said in an interview once that the meaning of the song continuously changes for h

  • i love the song :)

  • The first time I heard this song I was under the impression that this song has a lot to do with abortion. Upon closer inspection of the lyrics I think it is about becoming a young mum. I think the person it is about had a fling with a guy in the army and got pregnant. He became an alcoholic and knew he would not be a good father and she had to learn to move on with her life and just take it as it is!!

    If anyone has any other idea's let me know.

    <3 One of my favourite songs of all time!

  • i love this song look me up cuz im singing this song alexishotstuf12245

  • "But my god it is so beautiful when the boy smiles" I love that line.

  • this is souch a sweet song! I loved the highlight part when she says "I feel like Im naked infront of the crowd" - and correspondingly the "mechanic glittering" stops (I mean the playback) to reveal a beautiful "naked" voice. I wish singers wouldn't mess up their good voices so much with editing (for instance, I was shocked to find that lady gaga CAN actually sing!! ) ... ~_~

  • This song is so hard to sing because there are so many words in one breath.

  • @helpme68havefun

    You are so right. It is hard to sing because there are so many words in one breath.
