If I had a time machine
I'd go back to the day that I met you, and
I'd recover all the time that I lost
Being with you was a mistake, but I learned
If you knew that I regret
The affection and all the love that I gave you, and
Of pretending for so long to be happy
When in reality I wasn't happy with you
I'm leaving here
I'm tired of suffering
I'm tired of crying
I'm tired of feeling that everything comes out wrong for me
I'm just going to stay
I'll be better like this
I'm tired of trying
And no, no
The love that I had died
I loved you but it's all over now
The woman that I loved so much failed me
If I had a time machine
I'd go back to the day that I met you, and
I'd recover all the time that I lost
Being with you was a mistake, but I learned
That I decided to love you
When I should've loved myself
By chasing after you I lost myself
And no, no
(I don't want to know any more about this love
Tell Cupid to do me the favor)
That I found peace and I just feel better

SONG MEANING

Ever wished you could hit rewind on a relationship? “Máquina Del Tiempo” turns that fantasy into a catchy confession. Jay Wheeler imagines stepping into a time-travel gadget, zipping back to the very moment he met his ex, and saving himself the heartbreak he now carries. The chorus is a bittersweet mix of regret and relief: he sees that loving her was a mistake, yet the experience taught him to value self-love first.

Behind the reggaetón rhythm lies a powerful message of growth. Wheeler lists the emotional toll— tears, frustration, lost time— then announces he is done chasing someone who let him down. By the end, the singer isn’t asking Cupid for another arrow; he’s celebrating newfound peace in his own company. It is a relatable anthem for anyone who’s ever wished for a do-over but decided to move forward stronger instead.
