I would like to stop this discussion by quoting a dictionary where the usage is clearly explained.

It’s time

from English Grammar Today

We can use the expression it’s time + subject + past verb form to refer to the present moment:

Gosh! It’s almost midnight. It’s time we went home.

Not: It’s time we go home.

It’s time with a verb in the to-infinitive form can refer to the speaker and the listener together:

Come on. It’s time to start packing. We have to leave in two hours. (or It’s time we started packing.)

I am not a native-speaker, but I think a subjunctive mood is required.

In the case of «it’s time«, to offer something to do at the present time to + infinitive is used according to this answer.

But otherwise, in the case of your sentence a past subjunctive is used according to these questions and answers and it means something that should have been done at the present time but wasn’t, then told as a past subjunctive is correct.

Текст песни You Can’t Handle the Truth (Aborym) с переводом

You can’t handle the truth

‘cause there is not enough space in the white box

You can’t handle the truth

‘cause everything I’ve built is on the line

You can’t handle the truth

‘cause I can live somewhere new for a while

You can’t handle the truth

Where the secrets are trying to force the grave and get out

You can’t handle the truth

You know how this world can hurl me down

Because wars harm both sides

Pull the curtain back and let the show begin

The darkness changed to red-light

Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come

Lift me up and help me to fly

Hey, can you hear me?

You can’t handle the truth

Because this dreadful manmade miracle pays for itself

You can’t handle the truth

You cultivate the space and ghosts between my thoughts

You can’t handle the truth

Why don’t you enlighten my way? You only block my progress

You can’t handle the truth

Please stop the lying, my mind is under siege

You can’t handle the truth

Перевод песни You Can’t Handle the Truth

Ты не можешь совладать с правдой,

потому что в белом ящике недостаточно места.

Ты не можешь совладать с правдой,

потому что все, что я построил, на кону.

Ты не можешь совладать с правдой,

потому что я могу жить где-то в новом месте какое-то время,

Ты не можешь совладать с Правдой,

Где секреты пытаются заставить могилу и выбраться.

Ты не можешь совладать с Правдой,

Ты знаешь, как этот мир может ранить меня,

Потому что войны вредят обеим сторонам.

Задвинь занавес и пусть начнется шоу.

Тьма сменилась на красный свет,

Принеси гроб, пусть придут скорбящие.

Подними меня и помоги мне взлететь.

Эй, ты меня слышишь?

Ты не можешь совладать с правдой,

Потому что это ужасное рукотворное чудо само по себе окупается,

Ты не можешь совладать с Правдой.

Ты взращиваешь пространство и призраков между моими мыслями,

Ты не можешь справиться с Правдой.

Почему бы тебе не просветить меня? ты лишь преградишь мне путь,

Ты не можешь справиться с Правдой.

Пожалуйста, прекрати лгать, мой разум в осаде,

Bob Dylan. Dont Think Twice Its All Right. Пустяк

Эквиритмический перевод песни Боба Дилана “Don’t Think Twice It’s All Right” с альбома “Freewheelin` Bob Dylan» (1963)

Дилан говорил, что это просто любовная песня, «как будто вы разговариваете с собой». Он написал её, когда его подруга Сьюз Ротоло (Suze Rotolo) сказала, что задержится в Италии на неопределённый срок. Дилан адаптировал мелодию песни Пола Клэйтона (Paul Clayton) «Who’s Gonna Buy You Ribbons (When I’m Gone)» («Кто купит тебе ленты, когда я уйду»)

НЕ ГРУЗИСЬ, ВСЁ ПУСТЯК
(перевод Евгения Соловьёва)

Ну, нет смысла, детка, думать, почему так.
Если ты не поняла.
И нет смысла, детка, думать, почему так,
Этим не решить дела..

И нет смысла, детка, зажигать теперь свет,
Свет, не светивший мне.
И нет смысла, детка, зажигать теперь свет,
Ведь я на тёмной стороне.

И нет смысла окликать меня, девчонка,
Раньше не звала меня.
И нет смысла окликать меня, девчонка,
Больше не услышу я.

DON’T THINK TWICE IT’S ALL RIGHT
(Bob Dylan)

Well, it ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe
Even you don’t know by now
And it ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It’ll never do somehow

When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window, and I’ll be gone
You’re the reason I’m a-traveling on
But don’t think twice, it’s all right.

And it ain’t no use in turning on your light, babe
The light I never know’d
And it ain’t no use in turning on your light, babe
I’m on the dark side of the road

But I wish there was something you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
But we never did too much talking anyway
But don’t think twice, it’s all right.

So It ain’t no use in calling out my name, gal
Like you never done before
And It ain’t no use in calling out my name, gal
I can’t hear you any more

I’m a-thinking and a-wonderin’ walking down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I am told
I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don’t think twice, it’s all right.

So long honey, baby
Where I’m bound, I can’t tell
Goodbye’s too good a word, babe
So I’ll just say fare thee well

I ain’t a-saying you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don’t mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don’t think twice, it’s all right.

You Are What You Think: How Your Thoughts Create Your Reality

There’s a ‘secret’ that all great historical and present thinkers, philosophers, and high achievers have agreed to be a universal truth.

This secret revolves around this simple idea: You are what you think.

English philosopher James Allen wrote: “As a man thinks, so he is; as he continues to think, so he remains.” Stoic and Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius wrote: “A man’s life is what his thoughts make of it.” Poet and philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote: “A man is what he thinks about all day long.” Author Earl Nightingale said: “We become what we think about,” and Mark Twain wrote: “Life consists mainly of the storm of thoughts that is forever flowing through one’s head.”

All these great minds discovered the secret to living a happy, purposeful and productive life, and it’s this:

Our thoughts create our experiences, and thus, we experience what we think.

It is the quality of our thoughts, then, that create the quality of our life.

When we’re unhappy where we are in life, we seek to create change.

So we go about transforming our environment believing that doing so will create the necessary change we hope to see. We buy things for a materialistic boost of happiness. We travel to escape our problems. We seek substances to numb the mind and help us forget.

But of course, we fall back to where we had started: unhappy with where we are today.

And so the cycle repeats itself. We buy, we travel, we forget—always focusing on the external factors we need to alter in order to create better circumstances.

This happens because we falsely assume that change begins from the outside. In truth, the environment does play a role in changing your circumstances, but it doesn’t address the root of the cause (your thinking) that is the driver behind why you feel the way you do.

Here’s what you need to realize:

If you want to change the outside, you must first change the inside. You must change the attention of your thoughts because what you think directly influences how you feel, and how you feel directly influences how your body reacts, and how your body reactions directly influence how you behave, and how you behave comes to define who you are and what you experience in life.

“If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place.”—Eckhart Tolle

It all begins with your thoughts—our life experiences spring from the thoughts we actively engage in: You are what you think.

And to comprehend the essence of this statement, you first need to understand the link between your thoughts, emotions, and behavior.

The Link Between Thoughts, Emotions, and Behaviour

Thoughts, in and of themselves, have no power—it’s only when we actively invest our attention into them that they begin to seem real. And when we engage with specific thoughts, we begin to feel the emotions that were triggered by these thoughts—we enter a new emotional state which then influences how we act.

For example, if you regularly engage with the thought that you’re a failure and feed more attention to it, you’ll start to feel down, worthless, discouraged and perhaps even depressed.

How does your body react to this? You sulk down, slump your shoulders, and project no confidence.

But if you engage with more empowering thoughts, they would boost your confidence and thus trigger a more positive emotional state which will then be reflected in how your body reacts: standing up straight, upbeat and energized.

The Link Between Thoughts, Emotions, and Behaviour. Everything begins with the thoughts you pay attention to.

Thoughts trigger emotions, and the vibrational frequency of these emotions then feed back into the original thought. And as we continue to give mental attention to the initial though, it reaffirms the emotion, which then energizes the thought. And so we experience a continuous cycle of think, feel, think, feel, think, feel.

This results in the emotional state you come to experience: stressed, depressed, discouraged, happy, energized, confident, etc…

How you think and how you feel directly impact how your body reacts, and all three influence how you behave and what actions you take.

This is how your thoughts create your reality. It’s in the way you behave and act that you define who you are and what you experience in life—and the way you behave and act is simply a construction of how you think, feel, and do.

Emotions are the reactions to the thoughts you give attention to.

How you feel (and your body language) is a reflection of what you’re thinking about.

Since emotions and the body’s reactions are triggered by the thoughts you give attention to, therefore, you’re living in a world of thought: Your thoughts create your experiences, and thus, you experience what you think.

This means that all the problems we experience are nothing more than a thinking problem.

The “real problem” is not the problem.

The “real problem” is how we think about our problem.

We are not our circumstances.

We are what we think of our circumstances.

You failing in your business is not the problem, the problem is in you perceiving it to be a problem—it’s in how you’re thinking about it. You disliking your job and blaming your career choices for it is not the problem, the way you think about it is the problem.

Our problems are nothing more than our emotional and body reactions to our thoughts about the problem. So if we can observe and change our attention or perception, we can change our emotional reaction, which then changes our body reaction, which ultimately changes how we act and experience our reality.

And that’s exactly why true change begins from the inside, not the outside.

“We spend all our time and money and energy trying to change our experience on the outside, not realizing that the whole thing is being projected from the inside out.”—Michael Neill, Author

So if you think you’re a failure, you’ll feel like a failure, and then you’ll act like a failure. As long as you give attention to the thought that you’re a failure, you’ll continue to experience this reality, which then reinforces your belief that you must be a failure. This is called a though pattern and it has the power to destroy your life.

Your Thought Patterns Reinforce Your Beliefs

A thought pattern is “a habit of thinking in a particular way.“

In his book, Rewire Your Brain, psychologist John Arden writes:

“The more you do something, the more likely it is that you will do it again in the future. Repetition rewires the brain and breeds habits. The more the neurons fire together, the more likely it is that they will fire together in the future.”

Every thought we experience creates a chemical reaction in the brain which then triggers an emotion. As we engage with this thought, it creates a new circuit that sends a signal to the body and we react a certain way. The more we repeat this pattern, the more it seeps into our mind and becomes a habit. This is why neuroscientists say “cells that fire together wire together.”

As you keep thinking the same thoughts, producing the same emotions and performing the same actions, you continue to live by the same experiences.

As we repeatedly engage in the same thought patterns of think, feel, do, these patterns encode as a blueprint in our subconscious mind. And what does our subconscious mind do? It runs 95% of our life on automation.

As Dr. Bruce Lipton explains:

“Neuroscientists have shown that most of our decisions, actions, emotions and behavior depend on the 95% of brain activity that is beyond our conscious awareness, which means that 95% of our life comes from the programming in our subconscious mind.”

This is why it’s so hard to make change happen!

It’s because we’ve repeated the thought patterns so many times that they’ve now become rooted in who we are: Our thought patterns reinforced our beliefs, and our beliefs came to define who we are and the reality we experience.

Psychologist Amy Morin explains that “once you draw a conclusion about yourself, you’re likely to do two things; look for evidence that reinforces your belief and discount anything that runs contrary to your belief.”

If you develop the belief that you’re a failure, you will view every mistake you make as proof to affirm that you are, indeed, a failure. And when you do succeed at something, you’ll credit it to luck. And this is how your thoughts create your reality. As you continue to think you’re a failure, you continue to feel and act in a way that reaffirms your belief. What happens next? You dwell and fall into a trap of self-pity.

Create New Patterns to Create a New Reality

So what does this all mean to you?

As you keep thinking the same thoughts, producing the same emotions and performing the same actions, you continue to live by the same experiences.

As we repeatedly engage in the same thought patterns of think, feel, do, these patterns encode as a blueprint in our subconscious mind.

Your subconscious mind automates your life, which means (if you’re not aware of your thought patterns), you will continue to live by the same behavioral patterns—and thus, your current experiences. As per Carl Jung’s words: “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”
