"Future's Here" lyrics
"Future's Here"
My phone knows what I'm thinking
Yeah I never have to spell
And the sun can power cities
And my car can drive itself
It's beautiful or tragic
Sometimes it's hard to tell
If it's science, fiction, magic
Or just Rome before it fell
So, yeah, the future's here, but you're not
So what's the use in all the miracles that I've got
Science and progress got nothing on sunsets
Feet in the sand, making plans in the dark
Oh yeah, the future's here but you're not
They tore down our old apartment
Built one twenty stories high
It looks over the park, and it's state of the art
Couldn't afford it if we tried
The more that you remember
The more you wanna fix
It's like trying to swim the ocean
With your backpack full of bricks
Oh, yeah, the future's here but you're not
So what's the use in all the miracles that I've got
Science and progress got nothing on sunsets
Feet in the sand, making plans in the dark
Oh yeah, the future's here but you're not
You're not, you're not
Memories turn to mountains too many to count
A million little shadows fading me to black
We used to say the past was all rose-colored glasses
But the best of me is gone and it's never coming back
Oh, yeah, the future's here but you're not
So what's the use in all the miracles that I've got
Science and progress got nothing on sunsets
Feet in the sand, holding hands in the dark
Oh yeah, the future's here
Oh yeah, the future's here but you're not
Oh yeah, the future's here but you're not
You're not, you're not
You're not, you're not

Train - "Bruises" Haven't seen you since high school
Good to see you're still beautiful
Gravity hasn't started to pull

Hates the sound that goodbyes make
She prays one day she'll find someone to need her
She swears that there's no difference
Between the lies and compliments
It's all...
Rob Thomas - "Ever The Same" We were drawn from the weeds
We were brave like soldiers
Falling down under the pale moonlight
You were holding to me
Like a someone broken

Just let...
Brett Dennen - "See The World" Where you goin' my brown-eyed son?
You used to crawl but now you run
You started off on a road half-dark
And the river curled into a question mark
Will you sleep on diamond beaches, dear?
And drink...

Figuring which club to sneak in
Fancy drinks and fifty-dollar cover charge
Lately it's been a big hassle
Heineken and New Castle
To make sure he's...
