Hyperdrive Lyrics

I never thought there were corners in time 

Till I was told to stand in one 

One straight line head on into the other 

Maybe standing in the corner looks like where it's got to come. 

But I pretend one wall is the past and one is the future 

And I just stand here like the present looking for a 

Good place to run 

Every fish that swims upstream now that's a catch 

Because the full mouth never wants to stop cooking. 

The map may be flat, the globe may be patched 

But the long line keeps right on hooking 

Circles in the ring of fire, where do you go 

On a night that is clear and warm? 

Oh where do you go? 

I never thought there were corners in time 

Till I was told to stand in one 

I've heard circles moving right through corners 

And they don't even know they've been around and around before 

Ringing, ringing against each other on a singing chain 

Like a flying magnet hyperdrive has never seen any reason 

To remain the same. 

Because I felt it I believe it 

Because there are things I've never seen that I believe 

So I'm going to place my face right in the triangle door 

Till I can move right on through instead of just standing here 

Looking at the floor. 

And it rains again tonight, I can think light years ahead 

Or I could put myself back a thousand years ago 

As if I'd always been here before or as if I am still to be born 

I'm a slow loser, but I'm a fast learner 

That much I know 

Anyone can go 

That much I know 

Anyone can go 

That much I know 

Anyone can go.
