Dismissed In Time
Irons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
An open mind and time to choose
Would you care to take a look
Or can you read me like a book?
Time is always on my side
Time is always on my side
Be Devil may care, fulfill your dream
If I said I'd take you there
Would you go, would you be scared?
Time is always on my side
Time is always on my side
Don't be afraid, you're safe with me
Safe as any soul can be, honestly
Just let yourself go
Caught somewhere in time
Caught somewhere in time
Caught somewhere in time, oh-oh
Caught somewhere in time
Caught somewhere in time
Caught somewhere in time, oh-oh
Like a wolf in sheep's clothing
You try to hide your deepest sins
Of all the things that you've done wrong
And I know where you belong
Time is always on my side
Time is always on my side
Make you an offer you can't refuse
You've only got your soul to lose
Eternally
Let yourself go!
Caught somewhere in time
Caught somewhere in time
Caught somewhere in time, oh
Caught somewhere in time
Caught somewhere in time
Caught now in two minds, oh
The lyrics to Irons's song "Dismissed In Time" are open to interpretation, but they seem to touch upon themes of time, temptation, and the hidden sins that lie within a person. The song begins by posing a hypothetical question about having the time and open-mindedness to explore and understand someone. It questions whether the listener can truly see and understand the singer, or if they can easily judge them. The repetition of the line "time is always on my side" suggests a sense of confidence and patience.
The second verse introduces a temptation, inviting the listener to abandon caution and embrace their desires. The singer suggests that if they were to offer an opportunity or take the listener to a particular place, would they be willing to go despite any fears or reservations. The chorus reinforces the idea that time is a constant presence in the singer's life, and it could also be seen as a reminder that time will reveal the true nature of a person.
The bridge of the song presents the listener as a duplicity, hiding their deepest sins behind a facade. The singer claims to know where the listener truly belongs, further emphasizing the theme of hidden secrets. The invitation to "let yourself go" could be seen as a call to embrace one's true self, flaws and all.
Overall, "Dismissed In Time" seems to explore the complexities of human nature, the power of time, and the struggles we face in reconciling our true selves with the masks we wear.

Trapped in a certain moment
Like a wolf in sheep's clothing
Hiding true intentions behind a harmless facade
You try to hide your deepest sins
You attempt to conceal your darkest secrets
Of all the things that you've done wrong
Considering every mistake you've made
And I know where you belong
And I know your true place
Make you an offer you can't refuse
Presenting an irresistible proposition
You've only got your soul to lose
You have nothing else to risk
Eternally
Forever
Let yourself go!
Allow yourself to be free
Caught now in two minds, oh
Now torn between two choices
