Well, I've got a pretty good idea what the lyrics to "Not This Time"
are.  The first verse seems pretty clear:

Oh with a mind that renders everything sensitive,
What chance do I have here?
Put an end, put an end
Put an end to every dream.
When you're near, I feel you, and I forget myself.

Then you've got your chorus of "not this time" and the next verse:

I don't know what I'm given unto every time
And here I am wondering why I did it again
I say, you keep me going, you keep the shit away
I don't know what it is every time you're near,
I feel you, and I forget myself.

And another mess of choruses, the line "and we all sing" and those
neat nonsense words that I won't even attempt to spell...
The only line that gives me a hassle is the first line in the second
verse - I'm not sure I've quite got it.  Any alternate suggestions are
welcome!
