Standing still, at the edge of time
There waits a nation for that final sign
Filled with dreams for the Land they know
The home that they were promised long ago

Listen close, and you'll hear their song
It tells of how they waited for so long
Yet they know that the day is near
There's something in the air
That says:

The time is now, so keep on trying
Here and now, there's no denying
What we could achieve,
if we would only believe
One more mitzvah is all that we need...

Can't you tell, it's almost over
Any day we'll hear that shofar
And then when we do
We'll know that golus is through
We can do it, now is the time...

Time goes by, and the days are long
But we the nation keep the faith that strong
Deep inside it's because we know
That very soon it will be time to go

Time to see why the world began
To know the end of that eternal plan
All along it was meant to be
This is our destiny,

And the time is now, so keep on trying
Here and now, there's no denying
What we could achieve,
if we would only believe
One more mitzvah is all that we need...

Sound the call, it's almost over
One and all, we'll hear that shofar
And then when we do
We'll know that golus is through
We can do it, listen well
The time is *now!*

Blank Space
Taylor Swift
This song is Swift's response to the negative reputation the media has given her. "I can make the bad guys good for a weekend" - the bad guys are the paparazzi to Swift, but are good to the "player" since association with Swift immediately gives publicity. Any publicity is good publicity and Swift knows this. "You can tell me when it's over" - the tabloids rumor relationships are over before the couple announces it officially. With this song Swift is portraying the way she is portrayed by the media. It is a sarcastic jab at how she views herself and how her "ex-lovers" only wanted to be with her to increase their fame. I applaud the brilliance in writing about how you always write about relationships. It is expected so Swift is giving the media what they want and profiting off the attention.
