Intro
Tick tock echoes in my empty hall Days stretch long when you're three feet tall Now they sprint past, no time to stall Chasin' shadows on the kitchen wall
Verse 1
Summer vacations felt like endless roads Bike rides till sunset, no heavy loads Popsicles meltin' slow in the heat Every minute a world at my feet Now bills pile up before I blink Coffee cold by the time I think Weekends vanish in a work haze Adult clock spins in a frantic maze
Pre-chorus
Feelin' the pull, the invisible thread Jumpin' timelines in my head No machine, just life's own spin Every breath, a new begin
Chorus
I'm an everyday time traveler, slippin' through the seams Kid days crawl, adult rush like bad dreams Scrolls steal hours, memories pull the strings Jet lag leaps, flow state spreads its wings
Verse 2
Thumb flicks up, screen glows in the dark One post to ten, losin' track of the spark Morning coffee to midnight stark Time evaporates, leavin' its mark Old tunes hit play, suddenly back there High school laughs echo in the air Photos flip, tears start to tear Past crashes in, caught unaware
Bridge 1
Board that flight, cross the dateline blue Land in tomorrow, body askew Clocks reset, but the soul's confused Every mile a temporal fuse
Verse 3
Now I harness it, dive into the zone Paintbrush flies, hours overthrown Creation's grip, time's overblown Future visions in the seeds I've sown Embrace the warp, no need to fight Daily jumps from dark to light Lessons loop, makin' wrongs right Time's my ally in the endless flight
Chorus
I'm an everyday time traveler, slippin' through the seams Kid days crawl, adult rush like bad dreams Scrolls steal hours, memories pull the strings Jet lag leaps, flow state spreads its wings
Bridge 2
Feel the surge, the bend and break Moments stack, no room for fake Peak arrives, no more forsake Final push, for heaven's sake
Chorus
I'm an everyday time traveler, slippin' through the seams Kid days crawl, adult rush like bad dreams Scrolls steal hours, memories pull the strings Jet lag leaps, flow state spreads its wings
Chorus
I'm an everyday time traveler, slippin' through the seams Kid days crawl, adult rush like bad dreams Scrolls steal hours, memories pull the strings Jet lag leaps, flow state spreads its wings
Outro
So ride the wave, the twist, the turn Lessons earned in the bridges burned Everyday traveler, forever learn Time's the fire where we all burn
Inside the recording
Tick tock echoes in my empty hall Days stretch long when you're three feet tall
Feelin' the pull, the invisible thread Jumpin' timelines in my head
So ride the wave, the twist, the turn Lessons earned in the bridges burned
