 " When it's late in the hour


 And a few more grains of sand will fall


 On the colourful flowers


 Grown upon the dust and moss


 Now I fear the worst is near


 I hold them close and count their years


 I pray a ray of light appears


 To shine down on us here "

 ___________________________
 / Audioslave / I think this song is about Cornell's speculations
 / Shape of Things To Come / about the future for him and his family. Note the
 / Revelations / family that he mentions in most of his lyrics on
 /__________________________/ Revelations. On the dvd that follow with the cd, he says
 that now that he has become a father, he now writes his
 lyrics from the view of his family and not himself as a single person anymore, sweet isn't it?
 
 Intro:
 The distorted guitar (in drop-d tuning of course) is overdubed here
