Timeline

Why can't I, why can't I fly?
Why can't I, why can't I fly?

The movement's in the clockwork
And the dial speaks through the sapphire
The crane is waiting patiently on the mire

I've got a timeline, and it's fishing for a boat
I've got a mind hive and its queen is in my throat
I've got a sigh that wears a velvet coat
And it's lined with the years they're woven
In the sounds of what she wrote, ooh-ooh-ooh

(Why can't I) I am on time (why can't I fly?)
(Why can't I) I'm on the current (why can't I fly?)
(Why can't I) I am on time (why can't I fly?)
(Why can't I) I'm on the current (why can't I fly?)

The movement's in the clockwork
And the dial speaks through the sapphire
The crane is waiting patiently on the mire

I've got a timeline and its hand is what I'm dealt
Couldn't speak yesterday, but now you hear me yell
I'm on the sea floor, and it's deeper than I've felt
But above me is the tundra, where the subsoil doesn't melt, ooh-ooh-ooh

I've got a timeline, and it's fishing for a boat
I've got a mind hive and its queen is in my throat

(Why can't I) I am on time (why can't I fly?)
(Why can't I) I'm on the current (why can't I fly?)
(Why can't I) I am on time (why can't I fly?)
(Why can't I) I'm on the current (why can't I fly?)

Let it lift (why can't I, why can't I fly?)
Let it lift (why can't I, why can't I fly?)
Drift
