Hourglass - BLOCKS (Daniel Nigro)

"Hourglass"
BLOCKS (Daniel Nigro)

As Tall As Lions announced the end of their band late in 2010, much to the disappointment of their fans. This single, Hourglass, comes from ATAL singer Daniel Nigro's new project BLOCKS. Credit to the band, BLOCKS, whom I do not own in any way. This is not copyright infringement.

To support Daniel Nigro and this amazing new sound, please buy the song at http://blocks.bandcamp.com/.

Lyrics:

I filled up an hourglass
To feel the sand slipping through my hands
Time keeps on sliding down
Backsliding downward toward an underground

Dark fades into the night
As whispers call me toward a city light

I filled up an hourglass
To feel the sand slipping through my hands

I feel a muscle pushing through the past
I'm building castles that are made of sand
I feel a muscle pushing through the past
Upside down, right side up, empty like an hourglass

Falling apart again
I see no future, I see no end
The shape of time will bend
It's bending moments toward recovering
I fill up an hourglass
To feel the sand slipping through my hands

I feel a muscle pushing through the past
I'm building castles that are made of sand
I feel a muscle pushing through the past
Upside down, right side up, empty like an hourglass

I've been under clouds of thunder
Spark to spark I'll cover you
Got the spirit?
Don't you feel it?
Spark to spark I'll cover you
I will cover you

idk what to think.... I like this song...but its just weird not hearing the ATAL-ness behind dan.

Cool song though.

I'm tearing up because I'm so happy to hear something new and awesome even though ATAL is broken up

[slippadige]

the album just looks like it says 'BOLOCKS'

love the sound tho

[swizzlefoot11]

Dan's voice needs REAL intruments to help him shine the way he once DID...not this MGMT/SOAF wannabe stuff..

[TheJLster]

..I'm liking the vibe to this song. I just feel the lyrics are kind of weak! But of course I'm comparing them to ATAL lyrics!!
