Testo How To Build A Time Machine - Darren Hayes

Testo della canzone How To Build A Time Machine (Darren Hayes), tratta dall'album This Delicate Thing We've Made

If I have understood correctly

Velocity equals the distance traveled

Divided by time

I've read every word ever printed

On quantum physics

And now it is time to try

I read your book, I found your notes

I dusted this thing off and turned on

The key

The rumbling motors

The buzzing incredible gadgets

The hissing electricity

And now the moment has come

I'm traveling back in time

They're running down the hall

I've started the countdown

They want me to stop

But I don't think so

I'm ready to go

Let's get the job done

Beyond the paradoxical

All the lights are dazzling

Pass the planes, and trains, and satellite navigation

Pass the time I spent today

Through the nearest wormhole

In a stunning ball

Of white

The light explodes and lands on you

And you're five

Always running away

And I was dying to kiss you

And I

I don't want to cry

I don't want to see

Where the moving van takes you

So I travel on

Beyond the stars

At one hundred and eighty-six thousand miles per second

I can fly

Forward a few years

To nineteen hundred and seventy nine

I caught a glimpse of the sky

They're coming down the road

They're coming to get me

I never should have come

I hide the time machine

I'm running down the hall

I think I'm in my old house

Pass the place where I grew up

Number nine Lake Road

Pass the swimming pool

And Mable park

And past Troy Clifford's house

To the Argonaut (?)

To the fish and chip shop

Out the back and down the road

To the place I got beat up

Hey, put that rock down

Can't you see he's half your size?

Hey, he looks familiar

Oh my god, he's me, age nine

Put your shoes on

And run away from here

I can't get involved

This is all so weird

I'm meeting myself

This is all so clear

All the things I've lost

All the people I've hurt

All the times I lied

All the moments wasted

All I never did

All the dreams I had

All the things I would change

I can change them

All the things I've lost

All the people I've hurt

All the times I lied

All the moments wasted

I'm gonna make right

What I did wrong

And change how the future has come

Through appliance of science

I'll take a hold of my enemies

Take their obscenities

Kiss them, and leave them like lovers who've gone

I'll call my dad

I'll tell him I miss him

And tell my reflection: 'it's not your fault'

And now the moment has come

I'm traveling back in time

They're running down the hall

I've started the countdown

They want me to stop

But I don't think so

I'm ready to go

Let's get the job done

Put your shoes on and

Run away from here

I can't get involved

This is all so weird [It's me aged nine]

Let's get the job done

All the things I've lost

All the people I've hurt

All the times I lied

All the moments wasted

All I never did

All the dreams I had

All the things I would change

I can change them

Beyond the paradoxical

All the lights are dazzling

Pass the planes, and trains, and satellite navigation

Pass the time I spent today

Through the nearest wormhole

In a stunning ball

Of white

The light explodes into another moment
