Naevus - Time Again lyrics

{Verse 1} By day it turns upon a hatpin And by night it saps your right To force a word in edgeways or Reveal what once could have been right By noon you have been grappling With the hours that stain your days By evening you are charging At the carpet of your grave You do not gamble But you gambled and you lost The right to say a word in anger To reciprocate the loss {Chorus} For the safety of your fledgling face For avoidance of disgrace For lessons learned and patience unearned You will find it’s time {Verse 2} The leaves did not land At the grand gates of your lean-to But fluttered off instead To decorate your ruler’s head The birds vociferously Shout back at you all the words That you have said in anger While below the worms crawl back to bed {Chorus} For the safety of your fledgling face For avoidance of disgrace For lessons learned and patience unearned You will find it’s time It’s time again {Verse 3} The dogs, they dance across the sunset Mice, they form committees That will offer up their judgements In the face of all that you have read And when the dust has been accumulated And when all is done and said You turn toward the door That’s never yours instead {Chorus} For the safety of your fledgling face For avoidance of disgrace For lessons learned and patience unearned You will find it’s time You will find it’s time You will find it’s time It’s time again
