Bone Orchard - Our Time Has Come (Redux) - 2023

Ⓒ Corcoran 1988 Ⓟ Corcoran BMI 1990

Originally on the band's first record, "Bonafide" (1990). First song about my leaving my previous band. As with the re-dos of the other songs from that record, THIS is the way it always should have sounded, especially the bass, which you can actually hear now since it no longer has to be buried due to the excessive pick scratching on the strings. And also like the other re-dos, all instruments and vocals are courtesy of M. Corcoran (the "last man standing"). If you want something done right….

Lyrics:

Rearview mirror's in pieces shattered on the floor.
I've just had enough yeah, I ain't looking back no more.
Living here with so many ghosts is making me feel dead.
Now I thank God I wasn't born with eyes in the back of my head.

Our time has come to lay the past to rest.
Our time has come, yeah, our time is here at last.

Looking back is never really all it's cracked up to be.
And I'd rather come my eyes on what's in front of me.
Stood to long in one place, yeah, the view never seemed to change.
Feeling better sorry than safe as I jump into the strange.

Our time has come to lay the past to rest.
Our time has come, yeah, our time is here at last.

Signs that used to point the way are all but faded now.
And dust just seems to pile up on all my sacred cows.
The time is here to cut the line before the rust sets in,
So I'm not left tied to the dock, just drifting in the wind.

Our time has come to lay the past to rest.
Our time has come, yeah, our time is here at last.
Our time has come, yeah, our time is now.
Our time has come.
