The Time Has Come I was walking past a coffee shop, where they were playing the news A local church on there was selling all of their pews It made enough attention to have everybody nearby to take a stop Even I became intrigued, maybe they left behind some silver or gold When I arrived, there was already a line Many were out standing in the cold Though one man had caught my eye For in his arm he had held a feline I started a conversation with the stranger Standing across from me at a fire As time had gone by, he told me each and every one of my true desires. I stood in shock in fear, but he continued on showing me the future of my life almost bringing me to tears I asked him why but he had not said another word Only smiling back, he picked up a dime and proceeded to chant it's time I turned away from the fire to see people fighting The church had ran out of possessions to give away I started to stray further and further away, making my way towards the bay When all of the sudden a light appeared, so bright I could not see, and a sound of horns so loud I could not hear When it faded a man appeared standing in front of me Claiming he's here to bring me home Though he did not tell me where he was from Only insisting that the time has come.

The Time Has Come
The Time Has Come I was walking past a coffee shop, where they were playing the news A local church on there was selling all of their pews It made enough attention to have everybody nearby to take a stop Even I became intrigued, maybe they left behind some silver or gold When I arrived, there was already a line Many were out standing in the cold Though one man had caught my eye For in his arm he had held a feline I started a conversation with the stranger Standing across from me at a fire As time had gone by, he told me each and every one of my true desires. I stood in shock in fear, but he continued on showing me the future of my life almost bringing me to tears I asked him why but he had not said another word Only smiling back, he picked up a dime and proceeded to chant it's time I turned away from the fire to see people fighting The church had ran out of possessions to give away I started to stray further and further away, making my way towards the bay When all of the sudden a light appeared, so bright I could not see, and a sound of horns so loud I could not hear When it faded a man appeared standing in front of me Claiming he's here to bring me home Though he did not tell me where he was from Only insisting that the time has come.
