The Future Is A Foreign Land Lyrics by Ghost Ghost
Below, you will find the lyrics for The Future Is A Foreign Land by Ghost.
15 years from now, I know it feels remote
But picture it somehow in your head
It's 1984
And knocking on your door is the Brownshirt Stasi guard
Boom, you're gone
And in the blood of the Kennedys
The good ones get shot
And in the absence of sympathies
Won't you hear me out?
Chorus 1
When it all burns down
When it all burns down
I will hold you close for the minute
Yeah, I'll hold you for the minute it takes
Verse 1
55 years from now, I know it sounds insane
The dark fascist regime might be gone
If you by then have forgiven me
When push comes to shove
We don't have to be enemies
Won't you hear me out?
Chorus 2
When it all burns down
When it all burns down
I will hold you close for the minute
For the minute
When it all burns down
And the flames devour everything that we are
I will hold you for the minute
I will hold you for the minute it takes
Bridge
With these words at hand
The future is a foreign land
So let us pray for more in 2024
We could grow old together
We could love one another
2024 And there will from then be peace forevermore forever
Peace forevermore
Chorus 3
But if it all burns down
If it all burns down
I will hold you close for the minute
For the minute
If it all burns down
And the flames devour everything that we are
I will hold you for the minute
I will hold you for the minute it takes
