A Telegram From the Future Lyrics

I've seen into your future, I saw the ending
Baby I'm sorry to wreck the whole story for you
Oh you sweet thing, poor you
I've seen into your future and I'll warn you
It only gets worse and I swear I'll have you cursin'
My name and I watched from a spy plane and

I flew into your next life, I saw you everywhere
Reincarnated as solid gold-plated skylines
We now know why time's

Best when it stops, we turn back the clock
The gears they grind and scrape,
They sound like my heart when another day starts without you
I just fall apart
I've seen into your past too, and one thing I noticed is
Something we've both been doing is coastin' through time
You were like "we're young, screw time"

I saw into your past and I saw you being born
You came out sleeping, you had us all keeping hope up
And one day you woke up and you
You got a telegram from years in the future
And it read "I'M SORRY" to make a long story shortened
But here's what's important:

Time is best when it stops, we turn back the clock
The gears they grind and scrape,
They sound like my heart when another day starts without you
I just fall apart

Years come and go and they drift like snow
Away into the night and nothing is ending, we'll just be spending
Our lives in different places now.
