Future Was Free

And When The Shift Was Over And You

Tapped Me On The Shoulder For Attention

You Broke The Stare That I Had

Found Myself A Comfort Zone Into

It Wasn't Funny But The Act Of

Wasting Money Was Tradition

And Present Company Had Narrowed

All The Options Left To Do

A Recent Study Asked The Laymen All Their Opinions

And With A Small Degree Of Error They Were All The Same

And There Was Nothing Left To Feel, For Us To Know

The Pain, The Pleasure, The Highs, The Lows

And There Was No One Left Who Cared Enough To Make The Claim

And Now The Future Was Free, And The Present Exciting

Come On, As We Both Began To Sacrifice The Past In Effigy

The Mood Was Daring So We Spent

The Evening Sharing Our Convictions,

Uneasy Moments Quickly Shifted

Conversation Back To You.

And Though We're Grinning I Can See

A Fresh Beginning Of Dissention.

Although The Awkwardness Of Make-believe

Was Hardly Something New.

It Seemed The Perfect Time To Start Up With A New Addiction

To Pass The Time Obsessing Over Something New

And There Was Nothing Left To Feel, For Us To Know

The Pain, The Pleasure, The Highs, The Lows

And The Time We Spent In Silence Was The Last Thing Left To Do

And Now The Future Was Free, And The Present Exciting

Come On, As We Both Began To Sacrifice The Past In Effigy

And Now The Future Was Free, And The Present Exciting

Come On, As We Both Began To Sacrifice The Past In Effigy

It Was Degrading, But I Was Appreciating The Attention, Yeah

The Simple Words And Gestures Were The Safety That We Hide Behind

It Wasn't Spoken But The Time Elapse Has Broken The Affection

And Knowing Failure Was An Option Gave The Only Piece Of Mind

And Now The Future Was Free And The Present Exciting

And Soon The Past Will Always Leave And Open Doorway

Back To You, To You, To You
