The first line of this lyric came about because I was bored at work and thought, "Hey, maybe I’ll work on my lyrics here at the office." I immediately dismissed the idea and put it in the form of a lyric.
Then I took it from there.

This is not the place for me to write my feelings down
This is not the time for me to say unspoken thoughts
This is not the moment when I tell you what I think
This is not the way I’d tell you why
When is the right time?
I don’t owe you anything, not even simple truths
I won’t mention anything you don’t already know
I can’t tell you how to feel about what’s there inside
I don’t even know what’s there myself
Is this the right time?
Tell me the right time
This will never be the place for me to tell the truth
This will never be the time for me to say the word
So what’s the point in waiting for a moment that won’t come?
Now is just a good a time as any
When is the right time?
Now is the right time
Is this right time?
This is the right time
