This Time

So this is the end

I will draw the line like I have one thousand times before

But this time it stays firmly in place

The smile no longer resides on my face

Summer has passed, the streets are empty now

Not this time

I want to run away, I gotta get away

Can we find a better way?

Not this time

Right now, right here

This is our last resort, but the air is clearing

The situation is too tough to report but the outcome is still pending

These words cannot express my longing

And my desire to erase these memories from my mind

So I lie here waiting for the right time

Could it be the right time to turn and walk away

Not this time

I want to run away, I gotta get away

Can we find a better way?

Not this time

Right now, right here

This is our last resort, but the air is clearing

The situation is too tough to report but the outcome is still pending

Stars hang like daggers waiting to fall

To cut the dreams from our hearts

Not this time

Right now, right here

This is our last resort, but the air is clearing

The situation is too tough to report but the outcome is still pending
