Livin' In the Future

A letter come blowin' in on an ill wind

Somethin' 'bout me and you never seein' one another again

Yeah, well I knew it'd come, still I struck deaf and dumb

Like when we kissed, that taste of blood on your tongue

Don't worry, darlin'

Now, baby, don't you fret

We're livin' in the future and

None of this has happened yet

Don't worry, darlin'

Now, baby, don't you fret

We're livin' in the future and

None of this has happened yet

Woke up election day, skies gunpowder and shades of gray

Beneath a dirty sun, whistled my time away

Then just about sundown, you come walkin' through town

Your boot heels clickin' like the barrel of a pistol spinnin' round

Don't worry, darlin'

Now, baby, don't you fret

We're livin' in the future and

None of this has happened yet

Don't worry, darlin'

Now, baby, don't you fret

We're livin' in the future and

None of this has happened yet

The earth, it gave away

The sea rose towards the sun

Opened up my heart to you

It got all damaged and undone

My ship, Liberty, sailed away on a bloody red horizon

The groundskeeper opened the gates and let the wild dogs run

I'm rollin' through town, a lost cowboy at sundown

Got my monkey on a leash, got my ear turned to the ground

My faith's been turn asunder, tell me is that rollin' thunder?

Or just the sinkin' sound of somethin' righteous goin' under?

Don't worry, darlin'

Now baby, don't you fret

We're livin' in the future and

None of this has happened yet

Don't worry, darlin'

Oh, baby, don't you fret

We're livin' in the future and

None of this has happened yet

None of this has happened yet

None of this has happened yet

None of this has happened yet

None of this has happened yet
