Tub Ring - Future Was Free lyrics
[Tub Ring - Future Was Free lyrics]
And when the shift was over and you
Tapped me on the shoulder for attention
You broke the stare that I had
Found myself a comfort zone into
It wasn't funny but the act
Of wasting money was tradition
And present company had narrowed all
The options left to do
A recent study asked the
Laymen all their opinions
And with a small degree of error
They were all the same
And there was nothing left to feel
For us to know
The pain, the pleasure, the highs, the lows
And there was no one left who
Cared enough to make the claim
And now the future was free
And the present exciting come on
As we both began to sacrifice
The past in effigy
The mood was daring so we spent
The evening sharing our convictions
Uneasy moments quickly shifted conversation
Back to you and though we're grinning I can
See afresh beginning of dissention
Although the awkwardness of make-believe
Was hardly something new
It seemed the perfect time to start
Up with a new addiction
To pass the time obsessing over something new
And there was nothing left to feel
For us to know
The pain, the pleasure, the highs, the lows
And the time we spent in silence was
The last thing left to do
And now the future was free
And the present exciting come on
As we both began to sacrifice
The past in effigy
And now the future was free
And the present exciting come on
As we both began to sacrifice
The past in effigy
And now the future was free
And the present exciting come on
As we both began to sacrifice
The past in effigy
It was degrading, but I
Was appreciating the attention, yeah
The simple words and gestures were the
Safety that we hide behind
It wasn't spoken but the time
Elapse has broken the affection
And knowing failure was an option gave
The only piece of mind
And now the future was free
And the present exciting
And soon the past will always leave
An open doorway back to you to you, to you
Tapped me on the shoulder for attention
You broke the stare that I had
Found myself a comfort zone into
It wasn't funny but the act
Of wasting money was tradition
And present company had narrowed all
The options left to do
A recent study asked the
Laymen all their opinions
And with a small degree of error
They were all the same
And there was nothing left to feel
For us to know
The pain, the pleasure, the highs, the lows
And there was no one left who
Cared enough to make the claim
And now the future was free
And the present exciting come on
As we both began to sacrifice
The past in effigy
The mood was daring so we spent
The evening sharing our convictions
Uneasy moments quickly shifted conversation
Back to you and though we're grinning I can
See afresh beginning of dissention
Although the awkwardness of make-believe
Was hardly something new
It seemed the perfect time to start
Up with a new addiction
To pass the time obsessing over something new
And there was nothing left to feel
For us to know
The pain, the pleasure, the highs, the lows
And the time we spent in silence was
The last thing left to do
And now the future was free
And the present exciting come on
As we both began to sacrifice
The past in effigy
And now the future was free
And the present exciting come on
As we both began to sacrifice
The past in effigy
And now the future was free
And the present exciting come on
As we both began to sacrifice
The past in effigy

And soon the past will always leave
An open doorway back to you to you, to you
