Chamber Band - Perfect Time Lyrics

So
What did I see
In the machine
In twelve years time?

I was upset
We were estranged
And some fault was mine

Had to speak my mind
At the perfect time

Now
Presently placed
I can erase
I can hit undo

I can reset
I can restore
Make the world anew

I can reset time
Take us back to fine
With a well placed line

Though I think there's a force against me
Pushing back, like the timeline is sensing it's so

And every time that I straighten the record
A new argument springs to life from the ether
It's so
Strange to me

Can it be that our fates are both sealed?
That the power you gave is a false one to wield?

And if so,
It affirms my fear
Whatever path I clear
Only buys us years

So what can I do
Living now with the truth:
Time won't yield or bend?

Each moment we pass
Inches forward to the last
Resolutions end?

Maybe get on fine
Live in my own time
Celebrate what's mine
