Future-Past ft. Beren Matthews Lyrics

It was always on the back of my mind

So close to foreground when with that your brain is lined

Like a bullet hitting right between the eyes

Like a straight-jacket if you don't sever the ties

The future-past, has the future passed?

The future-past, has the future passed?

It was always on the front of the page

So close to background as the words deepen with age

Like, a shadowed figure breathing in my rear-view mirror

A, delicate whisper screaming nothings in my ear

Until the future's past, has the future passed (me by)

The future-past, has the future passed (me by)

The future-past, has the future passed (me by)

The future-past, has the future passed (me by)

If the past is your only future, the game is lost before the cards are dealt

If the past is your only future, the game is lost before the pride's been felt

If the past is your only future, the game is lost before the wheel's spun

If the past is your only future, the war is lost before the battle's won

It was etched into the lunch box of my youth

Under the pillow with my innocence and tooth

Then the future-past, did the future pass me by?

The future-past, did the future pass me by?

The future-past, did the future pass me by?

The future-past, did the future pass me by?

The future-past, did the future pass me by?

The future-past, did the future pass me by?

The future...
