Time Machine
Killer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I want to travel in time
To see the past and future in my fantasy
A nostalgic illusion pull the handle
Start up the engine
Connect the switch
Ignite my dream

I want to travel in time
To relive my life
With no more tears, and no more cries
In my dreams I can turn back time
Back to innocence and to that youth of mine

Time machine, I wanna step into it
Time machine, there ain't nothing to it
Time machine, flash me through the ages
Time machine, turn back the pages

Into the future
I'll take a look at the world
To know where we stand
Explore the universe
Is there hope for a better world
Do we survive our sins and curse

Travel back in time
A journey through the ages
Revolution, of cars and trains
Re-experience my youth
Revive gone years




My first night with you
Meet again who was dear

@The_Primary_Axiom

Well, don’t rely on modern day entertainment to show you. They can’t make anything without modernizing it. Just go watch some older shows from the 80s and 90s. Like Buffy or Angel. I’ve never watched those and I’m currently watching them. It’s 100 times better than the shit that’s coming out today.

@ilyjawanni
