About This Track

There is a feeling of acceleration too, with imagery of imagination running wild and control slipping away, matching the track’s animated forward motion from verse to chorus.

Lyrics

Time Machine

[Instrumental intro]

[Verse 1]

Waste no more energy, no more time

Step into the time machine, aboard this flight

Time to go, it's sad that you're not here

To open up your eyes and watch me dissapear

[Chorus]

Carried away

Imaginations are running wild

[Verse 2]

Losing control, I'm landing back in this year

Did I ever move? Did I dissapear?

If I could move through time

I'd go back and put it right

[Chorus]

Carried away

Imaginations are running wild

[Instrumental outro]
