Consider your position, position your defense
Why don't you let me ask you, is it mere coincidence?
Feeding speculators on a downhill gravy train
Like vultures ripping out the eyes to reach the dying brain
Listen to the wind, a silent scream
Tearing out your broken heart like a forgotten dream
Ah a time for peace, a time for war
Wondering what we've been put here for
A time for giving, a time to take
A time for love and a time for hate
A time to beg, a time to steal
So you gamble on that spinning wheel
Of all these things I've had my fill
Lord I need some time to kill
Ten percent of nothing is exactly what you got
You think you've got the given right to take another shot
I'll take away your money, all you've got is coloured beads
Find a piece of land where you can sow your dirty seeds
Listen to the wind, a silent scream
Tearing out your broken heart like a forgotten dream
Oh a time for passion, a time for pain
A time to learn that we're all the same
A time to remember, a time to forget
Wondering how we're going to pay our debts
A time for thunder, a time for rain
Waiting for the seasons to change
Of all these things I've had my fill
Lord I need some time to kill
A time for peace, a time for war
Wondering what we've been put here for
A time for giving, a time to take
A time for love and a time for hate
A time to beg, a time to steal
So you gamble on that spinning wheel
Of all these things I've had my fill
Lord I need some time... Ooh
A time for passion, a time for pain
A time to learn that we're all the same
A time to remember, a time to forget
Wondering how we're going to pay our debts
A time for thunder, a time for rain
Waiting for the seasons to change
Of all these things I've had my fill
Lord I need some time... I need... I need some time...
Some time... Some time... Some time to kill
