Timeline Trigger

[Verse 1]
Woke up with a number on my wrist
Red glow, little ticking in the mist
"Press here, every wrong can be erased"
Clicked once, whole week rearranged
Went back, made the breakup disappear
Jump cut, different tattoos in the mirror
Mom calls, says “son, I’m proud this time”
But my brother’s name is missing from her eyes (what?)
[Chorus]
I keep turning back the clock, click-click, rewind
Fixing every little flaw in my own design
But every time I heal one scar
New cracks run through the dark
I keep tearing up the script I was meant to find
Future falling through my fingers like it’s thin glass lines
Thought I had the perfect crime
‘Til I broke the spine of time
[Verse 2]
Second trip, I delete that stupid fight
Come back, whole crew dressed in white
New slang, new rules, same street
But my best friend’s face won’t meet my feet
Glitches on the billboard spell my name
As a villain in a war I never played
Every “sorry” that I never had to say
Turns strangers into ghosts in broad day (hey)
[Chorus]
I keep turning back the clock, click-click, rewind
Fixing every little flaw in my own design
But every time I heal one scar
New cracks run through the dark
I keep tearing up the script I was meant to find
Future falling through my fingers like it’s thin glass lines
Thought I had the perfect crime
‘Til I broke the spine of time
[Bridge]
[Beat strips to warped bass, swung drums slide in]
Hit the trigger, see the world jump-cut
Every “perfect” move leaves another door shut
Timeline tangled like a necklace chain
Pull one knot, whole world strains
Should’ve lived with the burns and the bruises
Now I’m king of a realm full of strangers and futures
Can’t go forward, can’t go back in line
Last click left me locked outside my life (yeah)
[Chorus]
I keep turning back the clock, click-click, rewind
Fixing every little flaw in my own design
But every time I heal one scar
New cracks run through the dark
I keep tearing up the script I was meant to find
Future falling through my fingers like it’s thin glass lines
Thought I had the perfect crime
Now I’m stuck between the lines
‘Cause I broke the spine of time
