lyrics

I was looking for permission
To become what I am
Like I was sent here on a mission
To make you give a damn
Now I know what I ain’t looking for
It's when and where to be ignored
Ever after and before
I’d slip into a pattern
But for who?
Cause I know exactly
What it’s gonna take to free my mind
Now I’ve had enough to play
And now I’m thinking it’s time
I’m thinking it’s time

Time, time to be alone
Time, time to be full grown

You used to say that
All the best storytellers were liars
I'd linger on your every word
Like they were pale blue eyes
Now when the big one hits
I’m still too dumb to even realize
That the joke you said
You had just wrote
I’d heard a hundred times
Before, before, before
Again and again
So it won’t be me to volunteer
But someone really ought to do something
Before it’s time
Before it’s time

It's time, time to be alone
And it’s time, time to leave home

We used to shout and ball our fists
And shake our wallets at G-d
We swallowed lots and tasted little
And exposed you as a fraud
Now when the hard rain is falling
Sideways down the locker hall
A hero child rushes the black hole
Coming for us all
It’s tragic and true
And commonplace as alcohol
We sold those kids out
And called it inevitable
And I know you know
I know you know that it’s true
And I know, I know, I know
You don’t know what to do
You don't know what to do

Yeah, but you do
Know what to do
And it’s time
For something entirely new
