Been To The Future

She

Lives by the virtue of daytime TV

Alone in a suburb

And he

Fills up a bottle

And drinks from the sea

He'll always be thirsty

And they

Shiny examples of human decay

Come here, let me show you

How I woke up this morning

Still mourning a dream

I've been to the future

I've been to the future

I hear

Somewhere the circus

Is said to be near

Another distraction

And I fear

Will you be next to me

This time next year

Or will you be over?

But wait

Just as you leap

From the nest for the wind

Well I never told you

When you woke up this morning

You spoke of a dream

You'd been to the future

I've been to the future

Been to the future

Been to the future

Repeat after me

She's all I have

Is this what it means to be free?

Repeat after me

She's all I have

Tell me why

She's all I have

Please tell me why

She's all I ever had

Today

All the illusions are fading

Away

I've drawn my conclusion

Been to the future

I been to the future

Been to the future

Been to the future

Been to the future

We've been to the future

Been to the future

We've been to the future
