Oh I did yes I did get the hell out of the way
And I did yes I did left when you said don’t stay
Whatever you wanted I’d walk or I’d run
To always wind up back at square one
I moved when you yes you said so
I moved when you yes you said I got to gotta go
Then I bawled when called coward times two three and four
But I meant what I said I’m a coward no more
My time has come
My time has come
Push me or pull me or knock me to the floor
I meant what I said and I’ll move no more
Poked and prodded then knocked to the ground
I bowed and allowed you to keep me down
Until you yes you you make your amends
I will not break and I will not bend
You fooled me once and you fooled me twice
But I am the fool for being fooled all my life
Why is this space yours? Why yours and not mine?
You should be the one to move along this is occupied
My time has come
My time has come
Push me or pull me or knock me to the floor
I meant what I said and I’ll move no more
Not one step will I take not one bone will I move
I’ve made up my mind and I’m tired of being used
Used for your joys then used for your gains
You used me till almost nothing remained
I will not hide and I will not run
I am not through and I am not done
Don’t tell me to go don’t tell me to leave
I will move when I damn well please
My time has come
My time has come
Push me or pull me or knock me to the floor
I meant what I said and I’ll move no more

At first I was a bit hesitant, thinking "This sounds like Paul Westerberg fronting Leatherface." and then I thought: "Paul Westerberg fronting Leatherface would be AWESOME." System_Error
