Time Passed Away Lyrics


A strange man from another land

Came and moved right next to me

The only thing brought to his house

Was a crate called the time machine

He stayed inside for a couple weeks

Then he weased and passed away

Before he died brought me to his side

Said I'm the one who would win the crate

Escape to a land where our forefather's roamed

Escape from my wife and kids and bills for cars and home

Escape to a world where they fought with swords of steel

So I stripped away the crate to see what it revealed

Mind filed with crazy thoughts

I couldn't hold back at all

And to this day to my dismay

The machine it seemed to call

Wood lay on the ground then I heard this sound

It said take me for a ride

In disbelief fell to my knees

Found my name was on the side

Escape to a time, where the Romans ruled them all

Escape just to see, the Trojans charge the wall

Escape for an hour, watch Moses part the seas

I've found an open door to history's family tree

Travel through the time where man could make a kingdom fall

They'll treat me as a god then I'll make those people bow

This human from the sky came and over ruled the king

Lives will be condemned the slash and thrust of swords will sing

This unearthly job I took

Has shortened life for me

I've seen the times of Christ

I've seen the seven seas

Exploding pain inside my head

Told me the end was near

Another name appeared inside

The machines controls wouldn't steer

Escape to a land where our forefather's roamed

Escape from my wife and kids and bills for cars and home

Escape to a world where they fought with swords of steel

The time has passed away, my life's come to a yield

I fall to a deep magic sleep

My age rates one hour to a week

A young man appears by my side

He must swap his soul for a ride

Chosen by Farrel now all of my time passed away
