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
Blacksheep-the rebel son,
that clashed with authority
Powerless-at least i have tonight
the roads 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 to see
Sting-your conscience seared as anguish tears away
I might not come back tomorrow
please know i chose the right path for me
Chorus- I"ve lived, i"ve died
i"ve done it all a thousand times
and i dont regret a thing i"ve done
this time was mine to have
Wanderer-i"ve seen it all like no other man,
i"ve seen the light of all worlds
Father-i did my best for 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
