Our time

I believed the fairytale once read to me
By those exposed as criminals and wannabes
In a land once nice, now lost
Not long ago we shared our bliss, we cared

For this is our time
If not now, then when?

Low and behold, the situation seems so cold and dark, we fall
The precipice was unforeseen by some, not all
We can't go on like this but yet we do
So sad but true

This is our time
If not now, then when?
It's about time we let life begin
This is our time
