Futureghost Songtext
We lost touch, wish I didn′t think so much
What we had's now faded way beyond my clutch
Drifting off with the wind warm breeze through big streets
Summertime in the city but I feel weak
The air′s thick round Oxford Street
Fountains running by Centre Point where we used to meet
It's all changed now since they paved the roads
And closed the area to traffic cause when bombs explode
Cars cause havoc, meanwhile in the area
Around Piccadilly where I first caught malaria
For five years we felt the temperature soar
Caught a stale water droplet off a roof on my bottom lip
You could feel the air thick around your body
The sun looks hazy enough to drive me (ugh)
Stop wait somebody quick I feel sick
There's poison in the air you need to get me fixed up
No food or drink please I′ll only sick it up
No credit′s down the oxygen shop, I'll have to stick it up
There′s something not quite right though
Politicians let it go and let it grow, now the fog glows
It's kind of eerie, the tourists trade dried up
The Japanese at home all wired up
Virtual holidays, so why the fuck do you want to come here?
It′s 2052 you can put a headset on and really disappear
Who me? I'm just passing
Paying homage to my loved ones who were struck down in action
Like Lee and Lisa who were high tech geniuses
They robbed banks to fund the rallies for air rights
Sabotaged a building off the London route
Lee fell from a crane and maimed Lisa on the way down
Free-fall, screaming their slogan "Tear the roof off!"
They scraped off their bodies for whatever that was proof of
"Ghost like you′re sitting in the church talking to God"
"Ghost, ghost, ghost, ghost"
"You don't even exist"
It's like the day of the triffids, day the virus took a grip
Worse than Aids, reminiscent of the plague in 26
And still throughout the city I can feel the devastation
Headed to the airport, beggars at the train station
Try and accost me, they can′t see me just my reflection
I scare souls setting off the sniffer
Dogs messing up the x-ray detection
I move unseen, untouchable spectre still I feel unclean
Shanty towns fly by like spots of colour
Corrugated iron made to come back this summer
Heathrow looks grim, fields of tents
And families who can′t remember if they came or went
Hold my heaven breath here cause I smell the scent
H2O changed formula of floods to jets
In terminal four, I think through the mouldy floor
I've seen enough here, going on my global tour
So my plane takes off from the sickly smoke
It′s just me, other ghosts and a bunch of rich folk
On the last flight, heading off to die in peace
And see sunshine, I guess we'll all soon meet
As the air pressure changed I could feel the sense
Of the water on my neck dripping down through the vents
I feel strange (something′s wrong here), acid rain cold as ice
Leave me slumped in the seat wondering how I died twice
"Ghost like you're sitting in the church talking to God"
"Ghost, ghost, ghost, ghost"
"You don′t even exist"
What we had's now faded way beyond my clutch
Drifting off with the wind warm breeze through big streets
Summertime in the city but I feel weak
The air′s thick round Oxford Street
Fountains running by Centre Point where we used to meet
It's all changed now since they paved the roads
And closed the area to traffic cause when bombs explode
