Lyrics

Thank god this seat's velvet
I'm so uncomfortable
Who's knocking on my door
It's just a bitter wind

Thinking of the future
Only to be filled with sorrow
Say goodbye to lasting security
Waiting for a better tomorrow

Who gave him the key
The child in me holds tight
Nostalgia never stung harder
When will things be right

Thinking of the future
Only to be filled with sorrow
Say goodbye to lasting security
Waiting for a better tomorrow

Imagine money grew like weeds
And liquid gold came from bees
Is it so hard for us to see that oxygen is all we need

Thinking of the future
Only to be filled with sorrow
Say goodbye to lasting security
Waiting for a better tomorrow

Thinking of the future
(I've thought about this far too long)
Only to be filled with sorrow
(It fills me right up to my soul)
Say goodbye to lasting security
(This is the last thing I need)
Waiting for a better tomorrow
(I'm never saying goodbye)
