stuttering machine
iron moving fast
you want to go back in time
and try to change the past
answers in the math
science on your side
whats the worst that could happen
when two worlds collide
and it all ends the same
memories circle
like birds of prey
waiting for the right mind
to drive insane
don’t look back
theres nothing to see
regret is nothing more than
a toxic disease
why even play those games
whats the point to entertain
all the best mistakes
will always have last names
bridge:
actors take their places
your thoughts dance on stage
the curtains they are closing
on a role you can’t sustain
Behind the Song:This song is a story of a person who longs to create a time machine to fix all their past mistakes; I think we all have those thoughts, but all they are is thoughts.
But what if you could? What would it accomplish? It seems we learn more from our failures than we do our successes. It feels like we need to stumble in order to learn how not to fall in the future.
If you let regret just hover it will begin to eat you alive, bitterness will devour, and who do these thoughts hurt? Not those who hurt you… these cancerous memories only end up killing you, and no one else. - Stephen Christian
