About This Track

'Time Machine' by COIN is a 2021 alternative track from the album 'Coin'. The lyrics look back on a dream of escape, with the narrator running from the suburbs and trying to live by numbers and odds, only to land on betrayal. An old memory keeps returning, cast as “a time machine”, turning past moments into something that haunts the present. It is a tense mix of restless ambition and regret, sharpened by vivid images of youth and broken trust.

"Time Machine" is a track by COIN, from the album Coin, released 7th April 2021. The track is 3:40 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 2 articles about COIN.

Lyrics

Time Machine

Running from the suburbs, skipping heartbeats
Living by our own front teeth
Put my faith into a number, and push the odds aside
We swore we'd make it out alive
But you lied

An old dream still haunts me, a time machine

I knew you then
Ripped jeans in a playground of cement
I knew you then
Gold rings, but you never could commit

I heard you're living somewhere upstate with a new life
Is that really what you had in mind?
But I don't wanna let go, and watch it all unfold
I couldn't if I even tried, and I tried

You left me stuck 16 without a time machine

I knew you then
Ripped jeans in a playground of cement
I knew you then
Gold rings, but you never could commit
I knew you then
I knew you then

I knew you then
I knew you then

I knew you then
Ripped jeans in a playground of cement
I knew you then
Gold rings, but you never could commit
I knew you then
I knew you then
