The Future Ain't What It Used To Be Songtext

I never knew so many bad timesCould follow me so mercilesslyIt's almost surrealAll the pain that I feelThe future ain't what it used to beIt doesn't matter what they're thinkingIt doesn't matter what they're thinking of meIt's always so coldI'm to young to be oldThe future ain't what it used to beWere there ever any stars in the skyDid the sun ever shine so bright?Do you have any dreams I could borrowJust to get me through the lonely night?Is there anything left to hold on toWhen the rivers wash it all away?Is there anyone left to hold on toIs there anything left I can say?Say a prayer for the falling angelsStem the tide of the rising watersToll a bell for the broken heartedBurn a torch for your sons and daughtersThe endless night has got a hold of meDark days are pulling me forwardAnd all the tears are washing over meI'm crying, lost foreverIn a future that ain't what it used to beNo more no more no moreIt's like a storm that's never endingIt's like a shadow on the land and the seaThere's nothing as sad asA tomorrow gone badThe future ain't what it used to beSome days I feel so numb and emptyAnd those would be the good days for meNothing gets to me nowUnless I'm thinking of howThe future ain't what it used to beIs there anything left to hold on toWhen the rivers wash it all away?Is there anyone left to hold on toIs there anything left I can say?Say a prayer for the falling angelsStem the tide of the rising watersToll a bell for the broken heartedBurn a torch for your sons and daughtersThe endless night has got a hold of meDark days are pulling me forwardAnd all the tears are washing over meI'm crying, lost foreverIn a future that ain't what it used to beNo more no more no moreThe future just ain't what it used to beIt's never gonna be like it wasThe future just ain't what it used to beI wish it wouldn't come but it doesI wish it wouldn't come but it always does
