Back in Time (feat. Steffen O, Alex O'Brien, Cree Patterson, Alex Zulaika, Rob Glass & Vijay Puri)
If I travelled back in time
Could I change a thing?
Could I make my own poems rhyme?
Would I learn to sing?
If I travelled back in time
Could I write my wrong?
Could I prevent this life of crime?
Would my heart be strong?
I wasn't born to be this way
I wasn't born to bleed
I've never known what to say
Or how to get what I need
I wasn't meant to be alone
I wasn't meant to fall
I never grew wings to fly
I barely learned to crawl
If we travelled back in time
Could we save the land?
Could we turn it on a dime?
Would we understand?
If we travelled back in time
To reconcile our sins
Would the bells of freedom chime?
Would we know where to begin??
We weren't born to be this way
We weren't born to hate
We've never known how to play
And some say it's too late
We weren't meant to steal and fight
We weren't meant to lie
Could we reach a higher height?
Is there time to even try?
Back to the cradle
Back to the garden
Lost in a fable
Can we be pardoned?
Back to the future
Back to the Big Bang
Blame it on nature
Is this what our genes sang?
If I travelled back in time
Would I change a thing?
Surely you can send a sign
And tell me what to bring?
I wasn't meant to live so blind
I wasn't meant to fade
Show me what is there to find
And what can be made
I wasn't born to be this way
I wasn't born to bleed
I've never known what to say
Or how to get what I need
I wasn't meant to be alone
I wasn't meant to fall
I never grew wings to fly
I barely learned to crawl
Could I change a thing?
Could I make my own poems rhyme?
Would I learn to sing?
If I travelled back in time
Could I write my wrong?
Could I prevent this life of crime?
Would my heart be strong?
I wasn't born to be this way
I wasn't born to bleed
I've never known what to say
Or how to get what I need
I wasn't meant to be alone
I wasn't meant to fall
I never grew wings to fly
I barely learned to crawl
If we travelled back in time
Could we save the land?
Could we turn it on a dime?
Would we understand?
If we travelled back in time
To reconcile our sins
Would the bells of freedom chime?
Would we know where to begin??
We weren't born to be this way
We weren't born to hate
We've never known how to play
And some say it's too late
We weren't meant to steal and fight
We weren't meant to lie
Could we reach a higher height?
Is there time to even try?
Back to the cradle
Back to the garden
Lost in a fable
Can we be pardoned?
Back to the future
Back to the Big Bang
Blame it on nature
Is this what our genes sang?
If I travelled back in time
Would I change a thing?
Surely you can send a sign
And tell me what to bring?
I wasn't meant to live so blind
I wasn't meant to fade
Show me what is there to find
And what can be made
I wasn't born to be this way
I wasn't born to bleed
I've never known what to say
Or how to get what I need
I wasn't meant to be alone
I wasn't meant to fall
I never grew wings to fly
I barely learned to crawl
