Future Tense Songtext
von Sanctuary

What do you see on the news when you watch t.v.
...
War in the name of god, or a playground killing spree
...
Politicians promise you the world, and a preacher cries

All he ever wanted was your money, and a bitch on the side
What went wrong? did society twist him?
...
What do you see in the center of the public eye
Rock stars on smack, and a serial killer fries

Radicals blame suicide and murder on our from of art
Brainwash the youth, you know they claim we all play a part
What a shame that they can′t think for themselves
...

Past tense to future tense let history unfold
...
So ends a decade now what will the nineties hold
...


You know we're verging on the edge of an age
Then another century will turn the page
...
What do you think they will say when they look back on this

...
Were the eighties just a time of spoiled innocence
...
We leave our legacy like dust in the sands of time


...
Let′s hope the seeds we plant can carry the weight of our crimes
...
Past tense to future tense let history unfold
...
And when we're old and gray these stories will be told
...
You know we're verging on the edge of an age
Then another century will turn the page
...
We sail an ocean, a sea of doubt
Skeptics make no sense, can′t work things out
I′ll choose optimism, scream its name
Look to the future, a burning flame
...
Past tense to future tense let history unfold
...
So ends a decade now what will the nineties hold
...
You know we're verging on the edge of an age
...
Then another century will turn the page
...
Turn the page...
