In June 2005, Time Again released a self-titled EP on Tim Armstrong and Lars Frederiksen of Rancid Records. This EP would result in heavy radio play on several Los Angeles radio stations, including Fungus 53 XM, which would name the EP as one of the top 25 albums of 2005, and the song "I Go Back" as one of the top 10 songs of 2005. The band released their debut full-length, The Stories are True, on April 25, 2006, on Hellcat Records.
In August 2006 Brian left the band to play guitar for Mad Marge and the Stonecutters and was replaced with Tyler Price, who was then replaced by Oren Soffer.
Before the 2008 autumn tour Ryan decided to return home to Alaska, and was replaced with Jake "Belush" Margolis.In late 2008, founding member Elijah announced he would be leaving the band for a 2 year hiatus. The band were originally decided to take a break, but ultimately replaced Elijah with Kris Idol.
In late 2011, Dart was arrested on multiple charges including Kidnapping, Carjacking, Dissuading a Witness, Assault and Extortion among others. He was originally sentenced to 6 years although he denied any wrongdoing vehemently. In 2013 he won an appeal and was released shortly thereafter in 2014. He originally did not speak publicly about this after being released, but in June 2015 while announcing the revival of Time Again he finally spoke out in Czech Republic magazine Kids and Heroes about how winning his appeal and getting released was one of the most victorious days of his life.
A reunion album was planned for release in 2016, but never materialized. The band's current status is unknown.

Time Again Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Please forgive me, I know that I've done wrong
Please forgive me, but it's time that I moved on
Please forgive me, I know that I've done wrong
Please forgive me, but it's time that I moved on
It's 3 AM and it's time for me to leave
You tell me "hey, don't come back again"
And I say "Fuck you!" I know this is the end
And I've been down this road before
And this is something that I can't ignore
And one day you're up, the next day you're down
That's the reason I won't come back around
Please forgive me, I know that I've done wrong
Please forgive me, but it's time that I moved on
Please forgive me, I know that I've done wrong
Please forgive me, but it's time that I moved on
My bag is packed as I head out the door
You want me to come back for round more
And your mind is sick, girl you're so twisted
Lookin' back, I sure don't miss it
And we all know it wasn't meant to be
And oh baby girl, you betrayed me
And even though I know that I've donw wrong
Old girl it's time that I moved on
Please forgive me, I know that I've done wrong
Please forgive me, but it's time that I moved on
Please forgive me, I know that I've done wrong
Please forgive me, but it's time that I moved on
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
Please forgive me, I know that I've done wrong
Please forgive me, but it's time that I moved on
Please forgive me, I know that I've done wrong
Please forgive me, but it's time that I moved on
The song "Movin' On" by Time Again is about a relationship that has run its course and the singer is ready to move on. The song opens with an apology to the person they are leaving behind admitting that they know they have done wrong but that it is time for them to leave. The chorus repeats the plea for forgiveness and the need to move on. The singer recounts a conversation they had late at night with their partner, who tells them not to come back again. The singer responds angrily but then acknowledges that they have been down this road before and that they cannot keep coming back.
The second verse describes the singer packing their bag and being asked to come back for more, but they cannot because they see their partner as "twisted". The relationship is described as something that was not meant to be, yet the partner betrayed the singer. Despite knowing they have done wrong, the singer is determined to move on.
The lyrics vividly capture the raw emotions of a difficult breakup, from the anger and frustration to the sadness and regret. Overall, it's a powerful depiction of a person moving on from a toxic relationship.

Please forgive me, I know that I've done wrong
I am asking for forgiveness for the things I have done wrong
Please forgive me, but it's time that I moved on
Although I ask for forgiveness, it's time for me to move on from this situation
It's 3 AM and it's time for me to leave
It's late and I need to go
The real you it's all that I see
I see your true self now
You tell me "hey, don't come back again"
You don't want me to come back
And I say "Fuck you!" I know this is the end
I express my anger and accept that this is the end
And I've been down this road before
I have experienced this situation before
And this is something that I can't ignore
I can't pretend this isn't happening
And one day you're up, the next day you're down
Your emotions and behavior are unstable
That's the reason I won't come back around
I won't return because of the instability in our relationship
My bag is packed as I head out the door
I am leaving and have already packed my belongings
You want me to come back for round more
You want me to return and continue the cycle
And your mind is sick, girl you're so twisted
Your mind is unhealthy and it's affecting our relationship
Lookin' back, I sure don't miss it
Reflecting on the past, I don't miss this relationship
And we all know it wasn't meant to be
It's clear that we weren't meant to be together
And oh baby girl, you betrayed me
You have betrayed me and our relationship is damaged
And even though I know that I've done wrong
Despite my mistakes, I know that it's time to move on
Old girl it's time that I moved on
It's time for me to let go of this relationship
Please forgive me
I am apologizing once again
