lyrics

A breath of air
A vacant stare
Why can't he share
That he can't bare
This all alone
But it's all he knows
It's so absurd
But he can't find the words

God rest the time travellers mind
The one who thinks ahead but is always left behind
Tragedy's always near but when it works out fine
There's still no rest
For his mind

To himself
He does this to
And though inside he's screaming
He fears the truth
That it rules his life
...It is his life
And he's content to see
A self-fulfilling prophecy...

God rest the time travellers mind
The one who thinks ahead but is always left behind
Tragedy's always near but when it works out fine
There's still no rest
For my mind

...turn it up

God rest the time travellers mind
The one who thinks ahead but is always left behind
Tragedy's always near but when it works out fine
There's still no rest
For my mind
