Time Travel

I wish I had a time-travel machine so I could go back, handle things different, and still have you as a friend.  Then again, we're the result of all our decisions whether good or bad--we're accidents waiting to happen. Here's a song by Radiohead that makes me think about someone trying to help a friend, but they're too consumed in their past (or present) that they're not willing to listen.  It could be that they're so used to, and to a certain point, comfortable with  the way things are, that they miss out on the opportunities that life brings them. 

In pitch dark I go walking in your landscape
Broken branches trip me as I speak
Just because you feel it doesn't mean it's there
Just because you feel it doesn't mean it's there

There's always a siren
Singing you to shipwreck
(Don't reach out, don't reach out
Don't reach out, don't reach out)

Steer away from these rocks
We'd be a walking disaster
(Don't reach out, don't reach out
Don't reach out, don't reach out)

Just because you feel it doesn't mean it's there
(There's someone on your shoulder)
(There's someone on your shoulder)

Just because you feel it doesn't mean it's there
(There's someone on your shoulder)
(There's someone on your shoulder)

There there!

Why so green and lonely?
And lonely
And lonely

Heaven sent you to me
To me
To me

We are accidents
Waiting, waiting to happen

We are accidents
Waiting, waiting to happen
