FUTURE IS DUMB
[Verse 1]
As we charge swiftly into darkness
As the alternatives fall through
Do you still dream about tomorrow?
Does it look like the one you knew?
Does it remind you of a future we won't do?
[Verse 2]
The garbage we've shaped into mountains
Assistance with a twisted catch
Do you still dream about tomorrow?
Does it stare at you from the past?
Does it just sit there like a flavor that didn't last?
[Chorus]
The rain doesn't fall by the end of the day
And I'll continue to have nothing to say
Oh, the weight of the world
Makes me feel like the future is gone
[Verse 3]
It's weird that we've become numb to it
We've grown accustomed to the fear
Do you still dream about tomorrow?
After the ones that brought us here
Or are you just burnt out thinkin'?
"Damn, I gotta deal with this shit
Another fuckin' year”
[Chorus]
The rain doesn't fall by the end of the day
And I'll continue to have nothing to say
Oh, the weight of the world
Makes me feel like the future is gone
[Post-Chorus]
The present's insane
The future is dumb
The past, all mistakes
[Verse 4]
And I don't wanna battle 'bout
The triggers that they placed or where we
Land on the minutiae of the infinite tragedy
I'll roll my eyes 'cause I don't give a flying fuck
Whether I'm right or if I'm wrong
The future is dumb
[Bridge]
So what if you die? So what if you don't die?
So what if bubbling haze rains ash from the sky
'Cause the world doesn't owe you?
So what if you die? So what if you don't die?
So what if destiny lands and burns us alive
'Cause the world doesn't owe you?
So what if you die? So what if you don't die?
So what if reservoirs have gone empty and dry
'Cause the world doesn't owe you?
So what if you die? So what if you don't die?
So what if you realize that we ran out of time
And the world doesn't owe you?
[Outro]
The world doesn't owe you
The world doesn't owe you
The world doesn't owe you a thing
