Lyrics

Hey Marty, crank the dial, let the flux capacitor hum
I'm tired of being the echo of a beat that's gone numb
Take me back to the driveway, to the ghost of '85
When the photo wasn't fading and the dream was still alive
I've got a drawer full of junk, a chronic clutter of the soul
Choices like an hourglass that I can't quite control
I need to tell my old man that I never liked the bait
Fishing for a conversation while we sat beside the lake
I wasn't Jeff, I wasn't Mike, I was a moonbase architect
Building worlds from Lego bricks that he'd eventually neglect
She's standing by the lightning rod, shaking her golden head
"Don't go messing with the fabric of the life we built," she said
She's got almost everything, she's scared of the butterfly effect
But I'm just trying to fix the heart that I managed to wreck
If you decide to leave right now, I won't follow your track
But I won't be leaving with myself, there's no way back
I'm staying in this moment, 'cause you never really know
Maybe one day you'll return to where the shadows grow
Yeah, you're leaving now, and I'm not there by your side
But I left a piece of me behind, with nowhere left to ride
I'm a statue on the pavement, I haven't moved a grain
Maybe one day you'll return... and wash away the rain
The road is like a funnel now, narrowing with every turn
Every bridge I crossed is just another one I've had to burn
I'm staring at the precipice, the abyss is getting wide
But Doc said where we're going, we won't need a place to hide
I see Biff in every mirror, a bully made of regret
Trying to steal the dance that I haven't finished yet
I need to find her in the hallway, before the music starts to fade
Before the 'Enchantment Under the Sea' becomes a masquerade
I don't want a future of my past if she's not in the frame
What's a moonbase in the stars if I can't even sign her name
I'd do my homework now, I'd solve the heavy math of time
If it meant her tears were never hers, and her hand was always mine
Marty, hit the eighty-eight! Let the lightning strike the spire
The Bombhead's finally ready to walk through the fire
If you decide to leave right now, I won't follow your track
But I won't be leaving with myself, there's no way back
I'm staying in this moment, 'cause you never really know
Maybe one day you'll return to where the shadows grow
The future is back! The future is back
Roads? Where we're going... we still have the moonbase
