John Frusciante
Time Goes Back
[Verse 1]
These things'll go slowly by, these things
They'll be where no one would think
And when given this life
I ought've thanked you all who will take it away
I notice that you're fine
Setting up beside wherever turns a blind eye
Any solemn phase
And you belong at two times at once
My radio's my heart
We live as one, two ways at once
I know the waves I form
I know the way I won't become
[Verse 2]
These still places that are gone by
Believe they're somewhere else (believe they're somebody else)
Jumping in the mind of a passer-by
And being replaced like time's flies
Another wasted flaw
Going up against the endless law
I'm flown through a mirror
Almost disappearing, I glow faintly
You know this is nobody's life
I saw the days I lost
Hiding behind tomorrow's costs
[Outro]
Time going back, time going back
Time going back, time going back
Time going back, time going back
Time going back, time going back
