Do you wish I’d close my heart
Do you want me to be private
Like when you drove me part
You said you’d lived a lie
Twas killing you inside
Tis time you’re coming out
You’d now no longer hide
This thing was done in public
It is for all to see
We made our vowels before
All eyes on you and me
Their ears they heard us say
Only death would see us part
Twas nothing that should drive
Me up to move apart
Yet came the day of days
Dee day was the start
You voted with your feet
And asked me to depart
It broke what we’d created
It sundered what we’d made
It tore into the fabric
Of all that we had laid
A thing of this creation
A falling world in sin
Of broken bonds once one
Anew dawn yet begin
Is it time now to conceal
And privatise this fate
Or open and reveal
Before it is too late
There is a time to die
A time to up and root
A time to even kill
A time to tear it down
A time to weep and weep
A time to grieve and mourn
A time to scatter stones
A time not to embrace
A time to give it up
A time to throw away
A time to rip and tear
A time to not be silent
A time to loathe and hate
A time for war, not peace
There is a time for everything
The teacher said it well
The time we had is past
And now its time to heal
