"The Present Is A Foreign Land" lyrics
"The Present Is A Foreign Land"
I've been living in the present
As a foreign land, foreign land
Blurred, the days fly by, like road signs
I can't understand, understand
Wait up, I wanna take it all in
I don't see any future calling
I've lost a decade in a moment
Washed out before I even noticed
Wake up, you're not getting younger
What's time but pressure in a number?
Locked down and being left to wonder
If these hours will come back to haunt me
The past pummels me like an avalanche
I can't see, I can't breathe
Time's insidious disconnect
Eats away at me, totally yeah
Wait up, I wanna take it all in
I don't see any future calling
I've lost a decade in a moment
Washed out before I even noticed
Wake up, you're not getting younger
What's time but pressure in a number?
Locked down and being left to wonder
If these hours will come back to haunt me
Perhaps on another day, I might find some other way
To keep the fear in every second at the door
How can I reconcile this world that I don't recognise?
Nothing ever seems familiar anymore
Wait up, I wanna take it all in
I don't see any future calling
I've lost a decade in a moment
Washed out before I even noticed
Wake up, you're not getting younger
What's time but pressure in a number?
Locked down and no need to wonder
These hours are already haunting me

A long, long time ago
A giant lived, now he sleeps

Tied to a bottle I swear, I swear

Been cast aside by the world above

The Hunna - "Babe, Can I Call?" I've been finding it hard
To keep you out of my head
And I can't sleep at night
She's on your side
Your side of the bed
I'm talking to her, but she can feel it too
I can hear the '75, you know it's...
