Back in Time

I erase the lines
Of every fable I've forgotten
That comes at a price

I unweave the solemn thread
The silver tapestry of decisions
That sunders every chance
To make it right

One by one
Another memory gone
I fall asleep to the rhythm
I count in reverse from oblivion
Only to find myself
Back in time

The ghost of you
That follows me through
A room of broken mirrors

All these missing pieces
Vestiges of exiled terrors
The vivid dream
That locked me in
A hall of collapsing pillars

A cascade of collisions
Catastrophe of all my errors

One by one
Another memory gone
I fall asleep to the rhythm
I count in reverse from oblivion
Only to find myself
Back in time

Was this your design?
Perpetual sequences that synchronise
A circle of lies
Your perfect illusion of paradise

But the choice is mine
And now I want you to take me
Back in time

One by one
Another memory gone
I fall asleep to the rhythm
I count in reverse from oblivion
Only to find myself
Back in time

One by one
Another memory gone
I fall asleep to the rhythm
I count in reverse from oblivion
Five
Four
Three
Two
One
