Future Tense |
| What do you see on the news when you watch T. V |
| War in the name of God, or a playground killing spree |
| Politicians promise you the world, and a preacher cries |
| All he ever wanted was your money, and a bitch on the side |
| What went wrong? |
| Did society twist him? |
| What do you see in the center of the public eye |
| Rock stars on smack, and a serial killer fries |
| Radicals blame suicide and murder on our from of art |
| Brainwash the youth, you know they claim we all play a part |
| What a shame that they can’t think for themselves |
| Past tense to future tense let history unfold |
| So ends a decade now what will the nineties hold |
| You know we’re verging on the edge of an age |
| Then another century will turn the page |
| What do you think they will say when they look back on this |
| Were the eighties just a time of spoiled innocence |
| We leave our legacy like dust in the sands of time |
| Let’s hope the seeds we plant can carry the weight of our crimes |
| Past tense to future tense let history unfold |
| And when we’re old and gray these stories will be told |
| You know we’re verging on the edge of an age |
| Then another century will turn the page |
| We sail an ocean, a sea of doubt |
| Skeptics make no sense, can’t work things out |
| I’ll choose optimism, scream its name |
| Look to the future, a burning flame |
| Past tense to future tense let history unfold |
| So ends a decade now what will the nineties hold |
| You know we’re verging on the edge of an age |
| Then another century will turn the page |
| Turn the page… |
