Future State
Our televisions present visions of doom
Is it superstitious to say I love you?
In your pocket sits a locket
It's hard and warm and smooth and true
Say I'm dreaming this odd world stained blue
Pink eyes and signs float by me and you
These are the last rites of mankind, say I do
Advocated what's fabricated
It's plastic and perfect and lifeless and dead
I must be thinking of something else instead
We are living in a future state
We are living in a future state
We are living in a future state
No, I don't want to know how this age will end
No, I'd rather know how the next one begins...
Our favorite actors have all disappeared
Their voices have faded just as we feared
But still we listen, it's our mission
To find a sign, a song or a truth
Multiple choices make it so hard to choose
Our words are our weapons, and thought, our light
A fountain of flickers does temper this night
A clarion trumpet in time with the drums
Inside our chests, hearts beating in time
Judgement at last, we pay for all our crimes
We are living in a future state
We are living in a future state
We are living in a future state
No, I don't want to know how this age will end
No, I'd rather know how the next one begins...
Is it superstitious to say I love you?
In your pocket sits a locket
It's hard and warm and smooth and true
Say I'm dreaming this odd world stained blue
Pink eyes and signs float by me and you
These are the last rites of mankind, say I do
Advocated what's fabricated
It's plastic and perfect and lifeless and dead
I must be thinking of something else instead
We are living in a future state
We are living in a future state
We are living in a future state
No, I don't want to know how this age will end
No, I'd rather know how the next one begins...
Our favorite actors have all disappeared
Their voices have faded just as we feared
But still we listen, it's our mission
To find a sign, a song or a truth
Multiple choices make it so hard to choose
Our words are our weapons, and thought, our light
A fountain of flickers does temper this night
A clarion trumpet in time with the drums
Inside our chests, hearts beating in time
Judgement at last, we pay for all our crimes
We are living in a future state
We are living in a future state
We are living in a future state
No, I don't want to know how this age will end
No, I'd rather know how the next one begins...
