Living In The Future

I know all of my exits
 I'm always plannin' my escape
 It's the most aggressive symptom
 Of this collective phantom pain
 And the more that you ignore it
 The more it makes you go insane
 Just look around
 ♪
 It's the battle of the passwords
 It's the trumpets on the hill
 It's that constant paranoia
 It's the final fire drill
 And if you won't sing the anthem
 They'll go find someone else who will
 They're crackin' down
 ♪
 We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light
 It may not make it any better
 I'm just hopin' that it might
 I'm not talkin' 'bout forever
 How 'bout just gettin' through the night?
 We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light
 ♪
 I'm always lookin' over shoulders
 Not knowin' what I'm lookin' for
 Now that the feelin' someone's watchin'
 Isn't just a feelin' anymore
 Now that both sides of the aisle
 Are this good at keepin' score
 We've crossed a line
 ♪
 But there's a madness to the method
 There's a market for the fear
 It's that dance out on the razor's edge
 The wolf held by the ears
 It's the man behind the curtain
 It's the way of our frontiers
 Since the dawn of time
