I've created a time machine How I did, I cannot say I blindly leave eighteen And now, I've aged five years To a body that I've seen I've regressed, To my younger mind I hold keys that lost their sheen And unlock the doors, Of a wounded soul To stealthily tread what's been Lying in birth, Drenched in salted diamonds I drink from this rusted canteen Quenching youth, Destroying truth I move about in this scene Like a dream, It's my own visage Of a world that's become gangrene Where I operate, And remove the infected limb I've created a time machine, How I did, I cannot say But I know that this was forseen By my thoughts, In a ship above the sea

Time Travels in My Mind
I've created a time machine How I did, I cannot say I blindly leave eighteen And now, I've aged five years To a body that I've seen I've regressed, To my younger mind I hold keys that lost their sheen And unlock the doors, Of a wounded soul To stealthily tread what's been Lying in birth, Drenched in salted diamonds I drink from this rusted canteen Quenching youth, Destroying truth I move about in this scene Like a dream, It's my own visage Of a world that's become gangrene Where I operate, And remove the infected limb I've created a time machine, How I did, I cannot say But I know that this was forseen By my thoughts, In a ship above the sea
