about

An intergalactic love story from the year 2197.

lyrics

It's not a game of give and take
I feared
that took a part of me
It's all these slowly fading memories
from before I had to leave
Now every minute, every mile blurs
until we reach full speed
I push the needle, trace the dial's edge
so I might believe

When you arrive you will see
Oh it's not a waste of our lives
Pretend we'll be
just fine

Another day moving through this battlefield
We're so far from complete
As all these shadows circle around my head
It's so damn hard to see
Can't wait a minute we're wasting time alone
We could be traveling
So I push the needle trace the dial's edge
so I might believe

When you arrive you will see

A dream, a place to put the starts
you never get to live again
A tear in time, I'll trace the map
So we can come back anytime
Someday we'll look back
and know that this was right, this was right

I shut the shades to make myself aware
I make a break to leave
Then all these thoughts come flooding in my head
Is this something I need?
Can't wait a minute we're wasting time alone
We could be traveling
So I push the needle trace the dial's edge
so I might believe

A dream, a place to put the starts
you never get to live again
A tear in time, I'll trace the map
So we can come back anytime
Someday we'll look back
and know that this was right, this was right
