Time To Heal Lyrics - Midnight Oil

In the cities and the towns 

The word is coming down 

No more doubt, no more pain 

There's been a dragging of the chain 

Now there's a price we gotta pay 

No way out, no way round 

Where is the town that we lived in, brother? 

Where is the sound of the church bells, sister? 

Now is the time to heal 

You keep running from the wheel 

But there's nothing left to feel 

Empty heart down and out 

Now the writer's can't explain 

Why we're playing up again 

No way out, no way down 

Where is the hope of a clean tomorrow? 

Hope only offers when justice is coming 

Now is the time to heal
