Time To Be Clear

by Bonnie Prince Billy









It's time to be clear...
got news of his passing and got stuck singing here.
I want to peel the wallpaper & swing from chandelier...
something to show that I know it's time to be clear.

I can handle what's given. I can make mystry mine
and sing it with feeling, with rhythm & rhyme,
and make you all marvel that this is your time
and holler, “It's time to be clear. 

Stop all the moaning & bemoaning of fate;
God isn't listening, or else it's too late.
This is your song & your song it is great.
We're singing, “It's time to be clear.

Time to be clear and leave our old worlds
& build new stories here. Lover o lover
please buy me a beer and bring
all your enemies here/near.
