[Mesh, Richard Silverthorn, Mark Hockings - This Is The Time lyrics]
They build us up they throw us down
We have an opinion but that isn't allowed
We build it tall and watch it fall
We work in a factory but make nothing at all
But, it's hard, to resist
That there's more, so much more to be missed
And it's hard, to believe
That we've been so completetely deceived
This is the time to make a stand
To face our fear to understand
This is the time to change our plans
To hold our nerve to stand our ground
We work so hard we do things right
We love all our children
But that isn't a right we stay in touch
We talk too much we live in our dreams
But they're nothing but dust
But, it's time to concede
That I need more than this to be free
And it's hard, to believe
That we've been so completely deceived
This is the time to make a stand
To face our fear to understand
This is the time to change our plans
To hold our nerve to stand our ground
And they don't want the things we do
We knew it once and it's still true
And it's our right to pick and choose
They beat us once, but we don't lose
I'm sick of this pain it won't go away
I'm sick of this guilt for
All that I've built
I hate this crowd, for making me proud
I hate this town for pulling me down
This is the time to make a stand
To face our fear to understand
This is the time to change our plans
To hold our nerve to stand our ground
And they don't want the things we do
We knew it once and it's still true
And it's our right to pick and choose
They beat us once, but we don't lose
We have an opinion but that isn't allowed
We build it tall and watch it fall
We work in a factory but make nothing at all
But, it's hard, to resist
That there's more, so much more to be missed
And it's hard, to believe
That we've been so completetely deceived
This is the time to make a stand
To face our fear to understand
This is the time to change our plans
To hold our nerve to stand our ground
We work so hard we do things right
We love all our children
But that isn't a right we stay in touch
We talk too much we live in our dreams
But they're nothing but dust
But, it's time to concede
That I need more than this to be free
And it's hard, to believe
That we've been so completely deceived
This is the time to make a stand
To face our fear to understand
This is the time to change our plans
To hold our nerve to stand our ground
And they don't want the things we do
We knew it once and it's still true
And it's our right to pick and choose
They beat us once, but we don't lose
I'm sick of this pain it won't go away
I'm sick of this guilt for
All that I've built
I hate this crowd, for making me proud
I hate this town for pulling me down
This is the time to make a stand
To face our fear to understand
This is the time to change our plans
To hold our nerve to stand our ground
And they don't want the things we do
We knew it once and it's still true
And it's our right to pick and choose
They beat us once, but we don't lose
