IT'S NOT MY TIME

Are these the things that I have lost
Is this my appointed cross
Is this the time to wake my dreams
To fold inside subdue my schemes
Are these the things I must let go
Resigned at last to not go home

No seduction. I am resigned.
I sacrifice. It's not my time.

I'm glowing with the sin of pride
Chromatic riff Astigmatic eyes
I'm duty bound, the devil you know
He makes you think you never knew home

No seduction. I am resigned.
I sacrifice. It's not my time.

Carpe diva ill at ease today
New Work City, I missed the train
It just rolls on and everybody knows
Miss it enough, you don't hear the whistle blow

No seduction. I am resigned.
I sacrifice. It's not my time.
