Used Future

Here we go
 ♪
 Woke up in the future
 But nothing shiny and new
 The world of tomorrow
 Looks battered and abused
 Robots riddled with rust
 Circuits gathering dust
 Waiting, in twilight
 For you
 This is the new future
 Thought it was yours to explore
 This is a used future
 Feels like we've been here before
 ♪
 Lights on the horizon
 May not be what they seem
 Can't remember a time before now
 That doesn't feel like a dream
 The promises of prophets
 Are not enough to stop it
 The odds are getting narrow
 That the target hits the arrow
 And no clever resource to survive to deflect it
 ♪
 So hold tight
 Baby all night
 And in the morning you can look around and see
 This is the new future
 Thought it was yours to explore
 This is a used future
 Feels like we've been here before
 We're in a used future
 Everything around us must fall
 It's just a new suture
 On an old wound that cuts through us all
