[Verse 1]
Dive into a cosmic sea
Unravel all its mysteries
Navigate our spirits flying higher
As we join the endless choir
We all unite
[Pre-Chorus]
And now we rise
We fly, and cross the divide
[Chorus]
All I want is to go back in time
Change all moments lost in the tide
Taking back control
Cross the divide
All I want is to go back in time
Change all moments lost in the tide
Taking back control
Cross the divide
[Verse 2]
Time to wander through the mind
Immortal shadows intertwine
Navigate your way through cosmic sea
Our hearts infinity
They will align
[Pre-Chorus]
Give us the sign to fly
And cross the divide
[Chorus]
All I want is to go back in time
Change all moments lost in the tide
Taking back control
Cross the divide
All I want is to go back in time
Change all moments lost in the tide
Taking back control
Cross the divide
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Everywhere I look, I see the sadness in their bloodshot eyes
Everytime I feel the horror creeping through our children's minds
I cry
[Chorus]
Cross the divide
All I want is to go back in time
Change all moments lost in the tide
Taking back control
Cross the divide
All I want is to go back in time
Change all moments lost in the tide
Taking back control
Cross the divide
[Outro]
Echoes of all stories untold blinded by the night
Cross the divide
Gravity is growing stronger
Bending shape of time in our lives
