The Man That Time Forgot
Have you ever seen a man just up and disappear
Into forgotten memories of yesteryear?
Mister, I didn't mean to cry
Any fool can see I'm lost
I'm the man that time forgot
Would you like to know the secrets of my misery?
Written in the pages of my history
It's a living hell, this painted veil
Of illusions that I can't stop
I'm the man that time forgot
The minute hand is at a stand
It hasn't moved in days
I've lost my map and I can't get back
Could you spare me any change?
Have you ever seen a stranger just a-passing through?
And wondered where that drifter, he was headed to?
Well, the stranger's me and it's plain to see
I burn every bridge that I cross
I'm the man that time forgot
And I'm the man that time forgot
Yes, I'm the man that time forgot
