The Time Machine

Put to the sword by an impish whimFollow me now to a place we beginWrought with no anger, wrought with no fearDevilish children playing hereHidden in silence, below barren wasteConfusion hunger, am I still awake?Have I ever told you about my time machineSit you down, I'll tell you everywhere I've beenI have lived a long life, life extraordinaireLet me tell you about it, let me take you thereDoes it really matter, it's all in the mindLet me tell you about it, listen what you'll findI am not a preacher, I am but a manYou cannot imagine what I've seen and doneI have lived a long life, I have seen the worldI could tell you stories, hair will stand on endStand among the steeples, stand upon the wallsI have seen a God's face, I have no disgraceI have seen the gods cry, howling in the windWhere do I get started, when can I beginI am not a preacher, I am but a manYou cannot imagine what I've seen and doneSleep with a light that is dark to my eyesFather and sons, give me all of your liesThe brutal truth, that is never a lieFull Moon is out, as you look to the skyI am not a preacher, I am but a manYou cannot imagine what I've seen and doneOpen your heart and I'll open your soulEven in quieter moments I knowI am not a preacher, I am but a manYou cannot imagine what I've seen and doneEerie collection, darkness is there, wedded to dangerBetrothed to despair
