Hacking to the Gate (English fandab)

billion hearts are beating,
but, to you, it's no time at all.
When you close your eyes,
you can hear them all retreating --
feel them rushing past you.

I am lost here in the past;
looking back on the future, I cry,
I will not lose you,
I must not miscalculate --
you're falling to fast!

"Infinity:"
the concept that we made up
to call our dream and our love,
so that we could brag
of the future that
we sketched inside our heads.
"Finality:"
the clock has found us out;
its hands now point to accuse.
And now I go
to the crossroads
to face a cruel choice --
Hacking to the Gate!

In this second, I'd
cross over world-lines to find
a way to keep you safe from harm!
I'd tear through the fabric of time,
if I could protect your smile!
Then, again, I'll fall
into the hole that I made
and into another loop of time --
a lonely observer to pay,
and the paradox to reconcile!

Endless proofs and points of view;
still, to you, it isn't enough.
They're so meaningless,
they don't even make you laugh --
don't relieve the boredom.

Foolish! These so-called scientists
posit theorems, act like they know;
they are childish,
yet they claim to rule us all!
They aren't like us.

"Infinity:"
What's beyond our sky?
And what's between you and I?
It is our freedom
to imagine that
these answers can be found.
"Finality:"
it chips away 'til it's gone,
allowing time to flow on.
I will stop it though,
stop tomorrow,
when I make my choice --
Hacking to the Gate!

I cannot pretend
that I could ever forget
the promises I made my friends
back when we stood in the sun
and we made our master plans.
So, I'll use ev'ry
trick I have left to succeed
decieving time to get you back!
lonley observer, I'll be,
and never will I doubt again!
