The Butterfly Effect Lyrics & Chords By Able-x

A slight flutter it makes all the difference
To an eternity's worth of existence
A small change in the path once taken
Leaves a future that's forsaken
Never has been, never will be
I can't erase these things I see
To try and fix what is done is my mistake
Leaving me only one path to take

The power it went to my head
And I did things oh that I dread
I only wanted to keep us from our fate
I only wanted to help us find our way
I never wanted to cause you pain
I simply made my life in vain

Can't you see what you have done?
(Permitted to make change, you are not the one)
Never should you tamper with all time
(It is not the way, for our kind)
A danger I have wrought
(An ever changing destiny you have bought)
There is only one way to mend it
(You must find yourself, and end it)

Can you ever forgive me?
I'll do what I can, to set it right
I'll go back to where it started
And make myself see the light
I can break the connection, stop the test
Tell myself to put my mind at rest
Avoid the paradox, avoid lives lost
Don't you tamper with the Past at all cost

Strapped in, I step back one more time
This quest well it should never have been mine
I look through Time's eye
And I've found where I did lie
Alone on a rock in space
Separated from my race
So few left at the end of days
Time has come to the end of this phase

Can't you see what you have done?
(Permitted to make change, you are not the one)
Never should you tamper with all time
(It is not the way, for our kind)
A danger I have wrought
(An ever changing destiny you have bought)
There is only one way to mend it
(You must find yourself, and end it)

[Doctor Future]
Look here, Doctor! You are wrong
You can not stop it, it is coming on strong
What you are doing, you'll regret
Believe me, you ain't seen nothin' yet
For I am you now, from the days ahead
I am here to stop you bein' misled
Turn off the computer, shut it down
For you can't stop this universal meltdown

[Doctor Past]
I don't know what you are doing
Who do you think you are screwing?
I am the one it was decided would set it right
I am the one it was decided to save us from our plight
I am alone here to find a way
To save us all from the end of days
If you are me, than I know you
And you know that this is what I have to do

[Doctor Future]
If you know me, than I do know you
And I know that this task that you pursue
It is inevitable the ending
It is inevitable Time's rending
You see the things you have yet to change
They will take the timeline and re-arrange
All that you have done, it will be un-done
And who it affects you will not be the only one

[Doctor Past]
I have to do it, to save us all
You know that we are all doomed to fall
The universe it is ending
Reality is sending us to the edge
And our removal is pending
You know we won't survive, we won't stay alive
I have to do it, I have to try
Our chance for salvation you will not deprive

Can't you see what you have done?
(Permitted to make change, you are not the one)
Never should you tamper with all time
(It is not the way, for our kind)
A danger I have wrought
(An ever changing destiny you have bought)
There is only one way to mend it
(You must find yourself, and end it)

[Doctor Future]
If I have to destroy you, so it be
If I have to destroy me we will see
I brought it all on myself
No one here to blame, no one else
We were never meant to survive
At the end of time, we will not be alive
We have seen more than we were meant to see
Now it's for us not to be
Go ahead and hook yourself up
I will be here to pull the plug
This experiment it must stop
I will simply pull the plug and let it drop
As I do this simple task
While you, under Time's spell, just sit back and relax
It will never be repaired in time
Just sit and watch the End and it will be sublime

(Permitted to make change, you are not the one)
(It is not the way, for our kind)
(An ever changing destiny you have bought)
(You must find yourself, and end it)
