He built a time machine from scratch
Tired of living in the past
He powered up and left his home
Promising to return with news of the unknown
Stepping out of a swirling void
He saw the earth had been destroyed
Oceans had swallowed most the land
And then the return lever snapped off in his hand
And he's alone in a tide land
Lost in the, lost in the, lost in the future
With water rising at his feet
He made it to a higher peak
A panoramic look around
Left him with little hope he ever would be found
A smile grew across his face
A part of him thought this was great
Maybe some day he'll get back home
But living undisturbed, he always did prefer to be
Alone in a tide land
Lost in the, lost in the, lost in the future
