Time Machine Lyrics & Tabs by Don Johnson Big Band
Time Machine
guitar chords lyrics
The lights of Helsinki, familiar and dormant
A horizontal haze shrinking in the storm
And all displays of affection frowned upon as vain
No other people on this planet quite as proud of all its pain
It's raining sideways, water's flooding the highways
Another winter of discontent discontinued
More dark inspired days to leave behind these walls
No re-design will solve what's predestined in you
But this is where we are and this is where we could belong
As chance would have it, we can inhabit
And reform it all just slightly
A slow progression, no one pushed back
As the invisible hand has now become just that
Inhuman kind, the vilest being
Drowns into a blinding blue
As the invisible hand has now become just that
Inhuman kind, the vilest being
Drowns into a blinding blue
And silent green
Let me step into a time machine
Let me step into a time machine
(2x)
Now see the lights of Shibuya
Flickering quicker in the dark of night
And the delight's a destroyer
Every city has its own ten commandments
Its modes of transit and souls in abandon
I deploy a defense to resist it all
Whether pinned to the ground or up against a wall
The concrete, chrome, and I become one
I find it a comfort, provided I'm done
With the hide and the hunt
And the ride and the lump in my throat
Dying for a bump in the road
More tires that smoke, my desire has sunken my boat
Crying for wires and rope
From suppliers of hope, I can't get an answer
Maybe I should raise a hand to try demand some
Replace retreat with forward advancement
It pays to be distorted, the rewards are handsome
Could have pictured being richer than Richard Branson
Better mention, if we switch, I'm in the kitchen dancing
The picture getting clearer, no need for enhancement
People look like ants, and I am high enough transcend
The walls, the traffic, the minutes, and the laughing
The noise, the caffeine, the cynics, and the massive
Void between ourselves and how we want to be seen
Shibuya give me comfort, let me constantly dream
Inhuman kind, the vilest being
Drowns into a blinding blue
And silent green
Let me step into a time machine
Let me step into a time machine
(2x)
