Broken Down in a Time Machine Songtext
von Alkaline Trio

I don′t wanna go back, no, I don't wanna go
I don′t wanna go back, no, I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go back, no, I don′t wanna go
I don′t wanna go back, no, I don't wanna go

A moment I can′t leave behind
It was hide and go seek at the end of our childhood
Say goodbye to the innocent mind
I hear voices and I see lights coming from the door down the hall
I hear voices and I see lights coming from the door

I was born in a time machine
Broken down at some gruesome scene
Sometimes it works in reverse
And so I relive what hurts

You didn't know I was there, I didn′t wanna be
Now I can always go back but I don't wanna see
You didn′t know I was there, I didn't wanna be
Now I can always go back but I don't wanna see


Brings me back here at the worst times
As if things weren′t bad enough
When you ruined me here the first time
I can′t just go away
Not now, not again, not today

I was born in a time machine
Broken down at some gruesome scene
Sometimes it works in reverse
And so I relive what hurts

I got used to numbing so comfortably
Locked in here with what's haunting me
Now I don′t dare turn my back
That's when I get attacked
I′m broken down in a time machine

You know, I hear voices and I see lights coming
From the door down the hall
I hear voices and I see lights coming
From the door

I was born in a time machine
Broken down at some gruesome scene
Sometimes it works in reverse
And so I relive what hurts


I got used to numbing so comfortably
Locked in here with what's haunting me
Now I don′t dare turn my back
That's when I get attacked
I'm broken down in a time machine
I′m broken down in a time machine
