Now's The Time - Only Crime

We’re caving in around a portion of progress

We suffer sounds through a hole in the sign

Climbing down where the pressures we purchase

Can we pretend that it meant anything at all?

So we drive

We re-align

And tell ourselves everything’s alright

As we keep licking all the spit off our shoes

We can change the world around us

And put ourselves to sleep

But we don’t change for nothing anyway

Always gotta be the biggest thing

Keep chasing the golden ring

And we sell ourselves for nothing

It’s alive but there’s no destination

To pray alone before I shudder to sleep

It’s everything I never turned my back on

I never meant to end up this far alone

It’s arrived

We see it’s time

To be the ones who’ll never fall in line

Because this was never meant for your kind

Pressure lies

In your mind

And in the end it cuts away our time

Too full of self for us to recognize

Cross your heart

Watch your back

Turn your eyes away

Where the strains of the past won’t betray your ways
