Future Tense

What do you see on the news when you watch TV

War in the name of God, or a playground killing spree

Politicians promise you the world and a preacher cries

All he ever wanted was your money and a bitch on the side

What went wrong? Did society twist him?What do you see in the center of the public eye

Rock stars on smack, and a serial killer fries

Radicals blame suicide and murder on our from of art

Brainwash the youth, you know they claim, we all play a part

What a shame that, they can't think for themselvesPast tense to future tense, let history unfold

So ends a decade now, what will the nineties hold?

You know we're verging on the edge of an age

Then another century will turn the pageWhat do you think they will say when they look back on this?

Were the eighties just a time of spoiled innocence?

We leave our legacy like dust in the sands of time

Let's hope the seeds we plant can carry the weight of our crimesPast tense to future tense, let history unfold

And when we're old and gray, these stories will be told

You know we're verging on the edge of an age

Then another century will turn the pageWe sail an ocean, a sea of doubt

Skeptics make no sense, can't work things out

I'll choose optimism, scream its name

Look to the future, a burning flamePast tense to future tense, let history unfold

So ends a decade now, what will the nineties hold?

You know we're verging on the edge of an age

Then another century will turn the page, turn the page
