Lyrics

I was handed a second chance From the gods of true romance If i screwed up i would have to pay With my soul each and everyday Time was once on my side Time was once on my side Days went by in a wurl of confusion inside Zeus spoke to oden about my case He said this man needs to reject the human race He seems to thinks that he is above the law There in lies his fable floor Time was once on my side Time was once on my side Days went by in a wurl of confusion inside I was told not to open the box but, They left me alone with out changing the locks (What could he do) I just needed to know Now i wish i nwas on a boat going real slow Time was once on my side Time was once on my side Days went by in a wurl of confusion inside You'll have to pay ferry men one day And when you do you'll find you're self in summerd lands And you'll be walking in elysium
