Verse 1 Before the room, before the meeting, before the door Step in the time machine, walk it once more See yourself steady, see yourself clear Rehearse the calm before the calm’s even here The brain can’t always tell rehearsal from the real It just responds to the picture, responds to the feel So why walk in cold when you could walk in twice Once in the machine, and once for real, that’s the future pace device Chorus Take the time machine before you get there, see it clean and slow Future pace the moment, so your body already knows By the time you’re standing in it, it’s not the first rehearsal It’s the second time, and the second time feels natural Take the time machine, and the day already knows you Verse 2 See the whole moment, not just the scary part See the handshake, see the calm, see the steady heart See yourself finish strong, see the walk back out the door Rehearse the whole arc, not just the fear before Some people only ride the machine to crash and burn That’s rehearsal too, just running the wrong turn Flip the dial, set a better scene instead Same machine, different picture in your head Bridge Close your eyes, ride it slow See it clean before you go By the time it’s real, it’s rehearsed Step in the machine, calm comes first Chorus (Final) Take the time machine before you get there, see it clean and slow Future pace the moment, so your body already knows By the time you’re standing in it, it’s not the first rehearsal It’s the second time, and the second time feels natural Take the time machine, and the day already knows you Outro Rehearse it calm, rehearse it clear By the time it’s real, you’ve already been here The mind don’t know rehearsal from the real thing Step in the time machine, and let tomorrow sing
