Time Machine Reprise

(Wait, no, please wait)

No, I'm not listening

What's future? What's history?

What's happened will be and repeat

Now I know thy nature of no urgency

Sickly, cyclic, cynicistic shrills

Flitting in this mode of making memories

Keeping up this pace of keeping still

And so, look

Oh God, look at what you've done now to me

Locked into eternity

I'll be back here one day, so they say

Rumors have that I will write a different song

Trying to get it right all afternoon

And I'll meet you at the newly, everlasting little stint

Half a hundred little songs with little themes and little hints

Little remedies for little blots that stain my little head

When I didn't know that, I didn't know the tune

But still played it through

Oh, live the dream in a time machine

I've been waiting forever

Now I know ever waits for me

Ever so patiently

Oh, live the dream in a time machine

I've been waiting forever

Now I know ever pays the fee

To purchase identity

Oh, live the dream in a time machine

I've been waiting forever

But I can't seem to find my footing back on one

What's the time?

Where's it gone?

When's beat one?
