Time Machine

[Verse]

Looking in the mirror

Jaded old man staring back at me

Age shows in his face

Surely that guy isn’t me

I thought would be wiser

And answer all the burning questions that I have

But the older I get

The more unanswered questions I have

More unanswered questions


[Chorus]

We’re on a time machine

Stuck in forward gear

Feels like it’s speeding up

The passing of each day and year

Soon I will blink my eyes

Open them and realise

Life’s flashеd before my eyеs

And embrace my demise


[Verse]

Multiple philosophies

Work out flimsy theologies

No clearer direction

Where’s this divine intervention

The one true constant

The ruler of infinity

Alone, unkind, it’s time

It’s time


[Chorus]

We’re on a time machine

Stuck in forward gear

Feels like it’s speeding up

The passing of each day and year

Soon I will blink my eyes

Open them and realise

Life’s flashed before my eyes

And embrace my demise

My demise


[Verse]

Looking in the mirror

These years haven’t been the kindest to you

The colour fades in your eyes

Your days in the sun

Are done and through

Did we learn any lessons

Pass on our wisdom or deny the truth

Coming down on you


[Chorus]

We’re on a time machine

Stuck in forward gear

Feels like it’s speeding up

The passing of each day and year

Soon I will blink my eyes

Open them and realise

Life’s flashed before my eyes

And embrace my demise

Embrace your demise

Embrace our demise

Embrace the demise

We’re on a time machine
