Time Machine

Most people would find the picture of our universe
As an infinite tower of tortoises rather ridiculous
But why do we think we know better?
What do we know about the universe, and how do we know it?
Where did the universe come from, and where is it going?
Did the universe have a beginning, and if so
What happened before then? What is the nature of time?

Will it ever come to an end?
Recent breakthroughs in physics
Made possible in part by fantastic new technologies
Suggest answers to some of these longstanding questions
Someday these answers may seem as obvious to us as the Earth
Orbiting the sun or perhaps as ridiculous as a tower of tortoises
Only time, whatever that may be will tell

The lonely shed among the field
And only calm walks inside it
The strange machine was covered by the dust
Days didn't give it any chance
Instructions were lost in the past
And ever shiny details became rust

I will wake you up and switch on all your lights
All your sleeping lights, your thousand eyes
And we will fly across layers of endless time
Endless time, the blast will shake the night

I stretch my hand and wipe the dust
I press the start key to the past
My endless travel will begin
All clock hands will go backwards
Far from the moment I was born
And I will never be the same again

I will wake you up and switch on all your lights
All your sleeping lights, your thousand eyes
And we will fly across layers of endless time
Endless time, the blast will shake the night

The edge of time, no way to run
I feel myself I'm still alive
Overload rises fast
The universe unlocks the past

I will wake you up
I will wake you up
I will wake you up (wake you up)
I will wake you up (wake you up)

I will wake you up and switch on all your lights
All your sleeping lights, your thousand eyes
And we will fly across layers of endless time
Endless time, the blast will shake the night

Make real my dream
