Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I did a thing last night
You know those future games
I turned off all the lights
Oh, the future came
[Verse 2]
You were by my side
Will you explain?
Oh yeah
Real rhyme or reason for those future games
[Verse 3]
Now you were there last night
And oh, were you afraid
Of things we'd come upon
While playing future games
[Verse 4]
But baby it's alright
And so have faith
Oh yeah
You invent the future that you want to face
[Verse 5]
How many people sit at home at night
Wonderin' if they will be here tonight?
Wonderin' if children they bring to the light
Inherit the world or inherit the night?
[Verse 6]
Wonderin' if neighbors are thinking the same
All of the wild things tomorrow will tame
Talkin' of journeys that happen in vain
Well I know I'm not the only one
To ever spend my life sittin' playin' future games
[Verse 7]
So you better take your time
You know there's no escape
The future sends a sign
Of things we will create
[Verse 8]
Baby, it's alright
And so have faith
Oh yeah
You invent the future that you want to face
[Verse 9]
How many people sit at home at night
Wonderin' if they will be here tonight?
Wonderin' if children they bring to the light
Inherit the world or inherit the night?
[Verse 10]
Wonderin' if neighbors are thinking the same
All of the wild things tomorrow will tame
Talking of journeys that happen in vain
Well I know I'm not the only one
To ever spend my life sittin' playin' future games
[Verse 11]
Yeah
[Verse 12]
Future games
Future games
Future games
Future games
[Verse 13]
I know I'm not the only one
I know I'm not the only one
I know I'm not the only one
I know I'm not the only one...
