(F#)Time
to tell me the truth,
to bur den your mouth for what you say.

Un til now

I could have sworn I’d heard him say it ten thou sand times.
Oh, if on ly (Bsus2)I had been lis t’ning.

I thought I,
thought I was read y to bleed,
that we’d move from the shad ows on the wall
and stand in the cen ter of it all.
