First of all, great song by Darren Hayes of his astounding new album This Delicate Thing We've Made. Go check it out if you haven't already.

This song is part one of a trip that Darren takes, with Time Machine being the second part. Here, Darren is the apprentice of a professor, who is working feverishly on a new invention. Only problem is that the professor is leaving Darren in the dark about it. Darren misses spending time with his professor, and eventually his curiosity gets the best of him and he confronts the professor with a gun, and presumably shoots the professor. Then Time Machine picks up the story from there.
