Time Has Come Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All those nights just because they dont know better.
Can i take this all. can i take this all on me?
You are just the kings of the night.
Gonna take your sins. gonna take all your sins on me.
Just to set your souls free.
Father forgive them this modern confession.
Father forgive them the eternal sin
Can i take this all. can i take this all on me?
You are just the kings of the night.
Gonna take your sins. gonna take all your sins on me.
Just to set your souls free.
Father forgive them this modern confession.
Father forgive them the eternal sin
When little by little awareness sets




that there is no world in between.
No damn fuckin matrix
