It was time to lay it all down
Time to let go
Of those past hatreds and fears
The ones that would keep a brother down
It was time to lay it all aside
Move forward with our two feet
Scarcely breathing, daring
Watching out for one another
It was time to lay it all away
Time to cast aside
The chains that rattled as we walked
The bonds we could not hide
It was time
Yes time
Time to do the things we’d regret
Time to love and forget
It was time
To go on and on
Chasing the dreams we couldn’t hang on to
Flying and falling
Like Icarus, we dove into the sea
There was a time
Way back yonder
And the things you hardly remember
The ones we’d never forget
Time had a way about it
Time, mystical and divine
Endlessly short
Our time, your time
Simply, Time.
