Taking My Time Songtext
von Rent Strike

As a youth
I was poured into
A recalcitrant mold

Never still
I would squirm until
You relinquished your hold

I′m gonna take what I want from it all
And I'd leave this planet behind
I have been
Slipping in and
Out of it all of the time

When I left the warp and the weft of it all
I was paper thin, and interdimensional


Oh, I have had it up to here
With the rental, the ornamental
Oh, I would let it all disappear
Like a dream in my wake

Bathed in radiation
Born under a sour sign
All that I′m left with is this meaningless existence
Being made to work and wait around to die

And in truth, I treated it like fiction
A reaction that the action can't deny
And with way more force than when they split the atom
I'll be coming from the future
I′ll be taking back what′s mine
I'll be coming for my future
I′ll be taking back my time
