Othersproof - Time Traveler Lover

I own a box, within which time stops
I now carry a heart which can break time and space apart
I've caused a paradox, and now the world erupts
I now carry a heart which can break time and space apart

If I can't visualize my lover
Must I travel through the years?
If I can already remember
What hasn't happened in the past years
If my body belongs in the future
Must I return to tomorrow's Earth?

She said we belonged to time
More than we belonged to our bodies
It crashes into us and possesses us
What do we say?
When we must not escape our own lifetime
Regardless of how far we travel
Through endless light, endless dust

I strongly feel love for this world
In spite of all of your faults
I strongly care for this planet
In spite of those who've damned it

Traveling to a past
Or a future era
Learning to tell the difference
Between shadow and penumbra
And the difference between - our body and our shadow
Between our home and its suburbs
Guided by all the love that lurks

Maybe the only way to survive the collapse
Is to go way, way back into the past

Time-traveler lover, time-traveler lover
Time-traveler lover, time-traveler lover

I own a box, within which time stops
I now carry a heart which can break time and space apart
I've caused a paradox, and now the world erupts
I now carry a heart which can break time and space apart

Despite being in the same vessel, the same ship
Nothing could make me handle a relationship
I found it would defragment my spirit, my soul
So I escaped through this vortex, this black hole

She said, remember - past the blackness
Towards the core - there are all kinds of colors
What do we say?
When we've reduced ourselves to a heartbeat
In a time traveling capsule in orbit

How can we ever be free?
When we can't ever avoid - the future crashing into us
Until there's none of it left

Traveling to a past
Or a future era
Learning to tell the difference
Between shadow and penumbra
And the difference between - our body and our shadow
Between our home and its suburbs
Guided by all the love that lurks

Maybe the only way to survive the collapse
Is to go way, way back into the past
I've never been in love
But my heart aches all the same

Time-traveler lover, time-traveler lover
