Time After Time

Miss informed over warned fear is born freedom scorned
And nothing more but to be bored with your purchase
Eyeless tongues take tales that run to truths to come
See nothing got done still waiting for what became never
Medal of death that clench the fist Scream out in jest with claws of death
And scrape what’s left of your unsung meaning
Words always obscured seemed unlearned find a way to be heard
Define doors that are locked to those without funding
Life’s a lie of buying time you missed the sign the dream went blind
Its only life that you’re running out of
Consumed or be consumed over use and over soon
See it was only you, you were fooling

Oh baby I’ve seen all them signs, I’m just passing by
And it’s all right….it’s just time after time

Now question all that would have the gall 
To make you wait in a government stall
And then ask yourself is there anything left to question
Poverty screams and faults will ring if anything the classes will ring
But is there anyone really even listening
War declared on anything that comes near Hope the mistake will disappear
And blame the victim if all else fails
Fill your life with a meaningless quiz a reality that don’t even exist
And all the answers are on channel 27
You wait for some else to move and if its right follow them through
If it’s wrong it won’t be you at the gallows

Oh baby I’ve seen all them signs, I’m just passing by
And it’s all right….it’s just time after time
