The Time Has Come

Tony Kruska 1988 (New York)



Lend a hand to the lost, they are led by the blind
No more grease for the gears they are beginning to grind
It's insane to think that there will be no end to the mess
I must confess the ship will sink just like all of the rest
The dark ones like to always hold humanity back
The time has come for them to fall we can't be stuck in the past
