Lyrics

I: Time Time Time has a funny way of playing jokes on you While you're waiting for what you think you know Will happen next is never what you could have come to expect And so it goes, oh, and so it goes Deep inside his eyes, I see myself As I wonder who he'll turn out to be Is that a question that needs answering right now? II: The Awakening "And so our tale continues As my parents ascend the Dark Sentencer And hightail it for the outer reaches of space My conception their futurе, and their fate imminent As thеir past draws me into the world" III: Birth Here's a simple story and I hope I tell it well Of a boy locked in a place, his mind the very cell Imprisoned with his wild visions of every time in space There's no one in this world quite like him The thing that complicates it is his parents and who they are The law they're made to run from beyond the House of the Stars The birth must be in secret so no prying eyes can see There's no one of this world quite like him Our pride and joy, are you there? Are you in there safe and sound? Tell us what you need so we can help you We don't know what to do, we don't know what to do Patronizing doctors with their diagnostic leads Carry on your query, it's blood, the boy, he bleeds But you can't see him like you, so a monster he must be There's no one in this world quite like him Vaxis? Son? Do you hear us? Do you feel us? I… I… IV: The Mirroring Eyes "Vaxis?" "Vaxis?" "Vaxis?" Vaxis, can you see us with your eyes? Vaxis, can you hear us with your ears? Is this right to calculate his moments? To find what's normal is being normal What's right? What's right? Can you feel it? (No) Can you hear it? (No) V: The Mother Time I'll take you home, this child of ours I'll take you home With all my love, I'll give you the world And keep no secrets from you So life gets tough, but it's no excuse or your fault My brightest star, shine your light on us all Am I wrong or did he save me? Shine your love on all this crazy Oh! VI: The Father Who says you gotta rush to get old? Figure it all out or you'll be left in the cold (Who says you gotta rush?) Little one, let them Don't follow, just set them free You can do it on your time, so you know (Oh, my boy) I'll be watching you, armed to the teeth Don't you go poking while the lion, he sleeps (The lion, he sleeps, my boy) My boy, it's okay to cry I'm telling you Time! Who says you gotta rush to get old? Figure it all out or you'll be left in the cold (I'm telling you, time) Little one, let them Don't follow, just set them free You can do it on your time, so you know (I'm telling you, time) I'll be watching you, armed to the teeth Don't you go poking while the lion, he sleeps (I'm telling you, boy) My boy, it's okay to cry Time!
