Unearth › Lyrics › This Time Was Mine

Victim, the cards were dealt with less time for me
Rebel, my only way to avoid your sympathy
Virtue, spellbinding charm and the strength of a hurricane
Black sheep, the rebel son that clashed with authority

Powerless, at least I have tonight
The roads are not long, at least I have tonight

Bloodline, few will see this through till the end
Cower, some hide in fear, controlled by ignorance
Eyes closed, the cruelest site for those dear to me
Sting, your conscience seared as anguish tears away

Well, I might not come back tomorrow
Please know I chose the right path for me

I've lived, I've died
I've done it all a thousand times
And I don't regret a thing I've done
This time was mine to have
I've lived, I've lived
I've lived and died a thousand times

Wanderer, I've seen it all like no other man
Wanderer, I've seen it all like no other man
I've seen the light of all worlds
I've seen the light of all worlds

Father, I did my best for the lack of my own
Son, a ragged path, but the love was not unknown
Brother, the best of times, a forever unyielding bond
Free from this disease, farewell, I'll miss you all

I've lived, I've died
I've done it all a thousand times
And I don't regret a thing I've done
This time was mine

I've lived, I've died
I've done it all a thousand times
And I don't regret a thing I've done
This time was mine to have
