The Future Ain't What It Used To Be Lyrics - Singles - Pandoras Box

I never knew so many bad times 

Could follow me so mercilessly 

It's almost surreal 

All the pain that I feel 

The future ain't what it used to be 

It doesn't matter what they're thinking 

It doesn't matter what they're thinking of me 

It's always so cold 

I'm to young to be old 

The future ain't what it used to be 

Were there ever any stars in the sky 

Did the sun ever shine so bright? 

Do you have any dreams I could borrow 

Just to get me through the lonely night? 

Is there anything left to hold on to 

When the rivers wash it all away? 

Is there anyone left to hold on to 

Is there anything left I can say? 

Say a prayer for the falling angels 

Stem the tide of the rising waters 

Toll a bell for the broken hearted 

Burn a torch for your sons and daughters 

The endless night has got a hold of me 

Dark days are pulling me forward 

And all the tears are washing over me 

I'm crying, lost forever 

In a future that ain't what it used to be 

No more no more no more 

It's like a storm that's never ending 

It's like a shadow on the land and the sea 

There's nothing as sad as 

A tomorrow gone bad 

The future ain't what it used to be 

Some days I feel so numb and empty 

And those would be the good days for me 

Nothing gets to me now 

Unless I'm thinking of how 

The future ain't what it used to be 

Is there anything left to hold on to 

When the rivers wash it all away? 

Is there anyone left to hold on to 

Is there anything left I can say? 

Say a prayer for the falling angels 

Stem the tide of the rising waters 

Toll a bell for the broken hearted 

Burn a torch for your sons and daughters 

The endless night has got a hold of me 

Dark days are pulling me forward 

And all the tears are washing over me 

I'm crying, lost forever 

In a future that ain't what it used to be 

No more no more no more 

The future just ain't what it used to be 

It's never gonna be like it was 

The future just ain't what it used to be 

I wish it wouldn't come but it does 

I wish it wouldn't come but it always does
