Living In The Future Lyrics - Dawes

I know all of my exits 

I'm always plannin' my escape 

It's the most aggressive symptom 

Of this collective phantom pain 

And the more that you ignore it 

The more it makes you go insane 

Just look around 

It's the battle of the passwords 

It's the trumpets on the hill 

It's that constant paranoia 

It's the final fire drill 

And if you won't sing the anthem 

They'll go find someone else who will 

They're crackin' down

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light 

It may not make it any better 

I'm just hopin' that it might 

I'm not talkin' 'bout forever 

How 'bout just gettin' through the night? 

We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light 

I'm always lookin' over shoulders 

Not knowin' what I'm lookin' for 

Now that the feelin' someone's watchin' 

Isn't just a feelin' anymore 

Now that both sides of the aisle 

Are this good at keepin' score 

We've crossed a line 

Photos 

There's a madness to the method 

There's a market for the fear 

It's that dance out on the razor's edge 

The wolf held by the ears 

It's the man behind the curtain 

It's the way of our frontiers 

Since the dawn of time 

We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light 

It may not make it any better, 

I'm just hopin' that it might 

I'm not talkin' 'bout forever, 

How 'bout just gettin' through the night? 

We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light 

We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light 

It may not make it any better 

I'm just hopin' that it might 

I'm not talkin' 'bout forever 

How 'bout just gettin' through the night? 

We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light
