The Time Machine

Put to the sword by an impish whim

Follow me now to a place we begin

Wrought with no anger, wrought with no fear

Devilish children playing here

Hidden in silence, below barren waste

Confusion hunger, am I still awake?

Have I ever told you about my time machine

Sit you down I'll tell you everywhere I've been

I have lived a long life, life extraordinaire

Let me tell you about it, let me take you there

Does it really matter, it's all in the mind

Let me tell you about it, listen what you'll find

I am not a preacher, I am but a man

You cannot imagine what I've seen and done

I have lived a long life, I have seen the world

I could tell you stories, hair will stand on end

Stand among the steeples, stand upon the walls

I have seen a god's face, I have no disgrace

I have seen the gods cry, howling in the wind

Where do I get started, when can I begin

I am not a preacher, I am but a man

You cannot imagine what I've seen and done

Sleep with a light that is dark to my eyes

Father and sons give me all of your lies

The brutal truth, that is never a lie

Full moon is out, as you look to the sky

I am not a preacher, I am but a man

You cannot imagine what I've seen and done

Open your heart and I'll open your soul

Even in quieter moments I know

I am not a preacher, I am but a man

You cannot imagine what I've seen and done

Eerie collection, darkness is there, wedded to danger

Betrothed to despair
