Song Lyric Sunday – Sign of the Times by Harry Styles | This Thing Called Life One Word at a Time

I heard this song when I was playing a random alternative playlist on Apple music and I fell in love with it. When I was trying to figure out what song to post for today’s theme, I went and did a little research on this one and found out that Harry Styles was part of One Direction. Not that the information would have turned me off of this song or his voice. I think both are masterful.

The reason I picked this one today was how relevant it is. History has shown us that there are so many dangers, but it seems we keep making the same mistakes and walking straight into danger rather than seeking to make change. I think our political climate today is indicative of it and I can only hope that the newer generation will actually learn from all our retarded mistakes and make the necessary changes.

The song has been stuck in my head all day and I’m hoping it has the same affect on you. Enjoy!

Just stop your crying
It’s a sign of the times
Welcome to the final show
Hope you’re wearing your best clothes
You can’t bribe the door on your way to the sky
You look pretty good down here
But you ain’t really good

If we never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets?
The bullets
We never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets?
The bullets

Just stop your crying
It’s a sign of the times
We gotta get away from here
We gotta get away from here
Just stop your crying
It’ll be alright
They told me that the end is near
We gotta get away from here

Just stop your crying
Have the time of your life
Breaking through the atmosphere
And things are pretty good from here
Remember everything will be alright
We can meet again somewhere
Somewhere far away from here

We never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets?
The bullets
We never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets?
The bullets

Just stop your crying
It’s a sign of the times
We gotta get away from here
We gotta get away from here
Stop your crying
Baby, it will be alright
They told me that the end is near
We gotta get away from here

We don’t talk enough
We should open up
Before it’s all too much
Will we ever learn?
We’ve been here before
It’s just what we know

Stop your crying, baby
It’s a sign of the times
We gotta get away
We got to get away
We got to get away
We got to get away
We got to get away
We got to, we got to (away)
We got to, we got to (away)
We got to, we got to (away)
