Wet ground and the snow is still not falling
Circumstances are alarming, darling
'Future' is just a word, that's how I recall it
The past is much more present in our yawning
But I heard you right, something was lost from the start
Oh babe, what should we do? What should we say?
Should we give it away?
The future looked so bright, what happened tonight?
Aeroplanes are crashing, who turned out the light?
Seemingly, it seems to me, I'm subject to a joke
And it's not a test
Wet ground and the stars are still out shining
Neon lights were never oh, so blinding
Prosecute the ones who stand accused
Let the others go or leave them dying
But I heard you right, something was lost from the start
Oh babe, what should we do? What should we say?
Should we give it away?
The future looked so bright, what happened tonight?
Aeroplanes are crashing, who turned out the light?
Seemingly, it seems to me, I'm subject to a joke
And it's not a sin
