I did a thing last night

You know those future games

I turned off all the lights

Oh, the future came

You were by my side

Will you explain-oh yeah

Real rhyme or reason for those future games



Now you were there last night

And oh were you afraid

Of things we'd come upon

While playing future games

But baby it's alright and so have faith

Oh yeah, you invent the future that you want to face



How many people sit home at night

Wondering if they will be here tonight

Wondering if children will he bring to the light

Inherit the world, or inherit the night

Wondering if neighbors are thinking the same

All of the wild things tomorrow will tame

Talking of journeys that happen in vain



Well i know i'm not the only one

To ever spend my life sitting playing future games



You better take your time

You know there's no escape

The future sends a sign

Of things we will create

Baby it's alright

And so have faith

Oh yeah, you invent the future that you want to face



How many people sit home at night

Wondering if they will be here tonight

Wondering if children will he bring to the light

Inherit the world, or inherit the night

Wondering if neighbors are thinking the same

All of the wild things tomorrow will tame

Talking of journeys that happen in vain



And i know i'm not the only one

To ever spend my life sitting playing future games



Future games...

Future games...

Future games...

Future games...



I know i'm not the only one...

I know i'm not the only one...

I know i'm not the only one...

I know i'm not the only one...

I know i'm not the only one...

I know i'm not the only one...

I know i'm not the only one...

I know i'm not the only one...
