Time Machine
Marcus Alexander Lyrics

Where would you go if you could travel back in time
If you had the ability to journey to the past, where specifically would you choose to go?

And could I come or would I be left behind
If you were to embark on this journey, would I be included or would I be excluded?

What would you do if you could see your other side
If you had the opportunity to witness an alternate version of yourself, what actions would you take?

I'd stay away cause those worlds should not collide
I would opt not to engage with that other version of myself because it's best to keep those separate realities from intersecting.

What would you change if you could journey to the past
If you were given the chance to travel back in time, what aspects of the past would you manipulate?

Open your sails or be the one to finish last
Would you prefer to take risks and venture into unknown territory, or would you rather play it safe and avoid being the one left behind?

What would you give to keep the memories alive
How much would you be willing to sacrifice in order to preserve and hold onto cherished memories?

I'd take a picture but my camera phone has died
I would attempt to capture a visual momento, but unfortunately, my camera phone has run out of battery or ceased to function.

Take my hand and follow me
Hold my hand and trust me as I lead the way.

There's still too much we need to see
There are still countless sights and experiences awaiting us.

So take this hand and run away with me
Therefore, accept this offer to join me and embark on a fleeing adventure together.

We'll run away in my time machine
Together, we will escape into the past using my time machine.

What I would do if I could travel back in time
If I possessed the ability to journey into the past, this is the course of action I would take.

I'd take my heart out, and sell it for a rhyme
I would figuratively extract my emotions and exchange them for poetic lyrics or verses.

What you would see if you could meet my other side
If you were able to encounter the alternate version of myself, what traits or characteristics would you observe?

Would still be me, cause I don't have a thing to hide
Despite the differences, it would still fundamentally be me since I have no secrets or hidden aspects.

But I can't change our past, the choices we have made
Regrettably, I am unable to alter our shared history and the decisions we have previously made.

With you I wish, and I wish I would have stayed
In retrospect, I long for the opportunity to have remained by your side.

But a dreamer is what I was born to be
Being a dreamer is an inherent part of my nature and identity.

With or without you
Whether you are present in my life or not.

I'll run away in my time machine
I will escape using my time machine, seeking solace through the act of fleeing.

We'll run away in my time machine
Together, we shall embark on a runaway adventure into the past using my time machine.
