The Future Is Here
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I start my day on a tiny screen
Try to connect the words, they're right in front of me
I walk to work out on the city streets
No one speaks to me, their stony faces beat
Never have I felt so goddamn lost and alone
Are you my friend? Are you there for me?
Can you come to my house? I'll tell you everything
I need you more than I ever have
Because the future's here, and we can't go back
Na na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
I end my day on a tiny screen
I try to reach for you through the empty sheets
I close my eyes and try to find some piece
Of what's left of us and who we used to be
Tell me if you feel like you are lost and alone
I am your friend, you can cover me
Just come over here and give me everything
I need you more than I ever have
Because the future's here and we can't go back
I need you more than I ever have
Because the future's here and we can't go back
Singing na na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
I need you more than I ever have
Because the future's here, and we can't go back
I need you more than I ever have
Because the future's here, and we can't go back
