Time Will Tell Lyrics

Vacant eyes, a portrait of pain, every time I look at the world
Tell me why, we cannot bring change, we've flown to high on borrowed wings
What will tomorrow bring

Only time will tell, we're searching
To escape ourselves, before it's over

Guilt and lies, pave a road to nowhere
Fear inside, everyday
But in the end, this web that we're caught in
Will release us, release us from pain
And things will change

Only time will tell, we're searching
To escape ourselves, before it's over
Only time will tell, we're searching
To escape ourselves, before it's over

We're looking for the rain to wash our shame away
We're waiting for the dawning of a new way
If things remain the same
We may not live to feel
To feel the winds of change

Only time will tell, we're searching
To escape ourselves, before it's over
Only time will tell, we're searching
To escape ourselves, ourselves...

Cover art for Time Will Tell lyrics by Metal Church

The song talks of how in times of dread and misery, the future is up for the taking and that it's only a matter of time before someone grabs it, though it's hard to tell when that will be. It expresses the hope that eventually, things will change, despite how uncertain the moment of it all is. Time holds the key to discovering if change is possible and whether or not it can even save them from their current predicament.
