The Future Ain't What It Used To Be |
| I never knew so many bad times |
| Could follow me so mercilessly |
| It’s almost surreal |
| All the pain that I feel |
| The future ain’t what it used to be It doesn’t matter what they’re thinking |
| It doesn’t matter what they’re thinking of me It’s always so cold |
| I’m to young to be old |
| The future ain’t what it used to be Were there ever any stars in the sky |
| Did the sun ever shine so bright? |
| Do you have any dreams I could borrow |
| Just to get me through the lonely night? |
| Is there anything left to hold on to When the rivers wash it all away? |
| Is there anyone left to hold on to Is there anything left I can say? |
| Say a prayer for the falling angels |
| Stem the tide of the rising waters |
| Toll a bell for the broken hearted |
| Burn a torch for your sons and daughters |
| The endless night has got a hold of me Dark days are pulling me forward |
| And all the tears are washing over me- |
| I’m crying, lost forever- |
| In a future that ain’t what it used to be No more no more no more |
| It’s like a storm that’s never ending |
| It’s like a shadow on the land and the sea |
| There’s nothing so sad as A tomorrow gone bad |
| The future ain’t what it used to be Some days I feel so numb and empty |
| And those would be the good days for me Nothing gets to me now |
| Unless I’m thinking of how |
| The future ain’t what it used to be Is there anything left to hold on to When the rivers wash it all away? |
| Is there anyone left to hold on to Is there anything left I can say? |
| Say a prayer for the falling angels |
| Stem the tide of the rising waters |
| Toll a bell for the broken hearted |
| Burn a torch for your sons and daughters |
| The endless night has got a hold of me Dark days are pulling me forward |
| And all the tears are washing over me- |
| I’m crying, lost forever- |
| In a future that ain’t what it used to be No more no more no more |
| The future just ain’t what it used to be It’s never gonna be like it was |
| The future just ain’t what it used to be |
| I wish it wouldn’t come but it does |
| I wish it wouldn’t come but it always does |
