If you could go into the future
And then back in the time you are
What things would you change
To prevent the past scars?
If you'd find starvation
Would you now be wasting this bread?
If you'd find sickness
Would you thank for not being dead?

But this trip ain't got way back
Beware in each step
There's no future
It's the present becoming past
There's no future
We can't live this fast
Be careful with your life through the time you last
You’re already in the future

If you'd find war
Would be peace just a white dove?
If you'd find loneliness
Would you now run for your love?
There’s an answer in the sky
You were born just to die

There's no future
It's the present becoming past
There's no future
We can't live this fast
Be careful with your life through the time you last
You’ve always been in the future
You've got a ticket to ride this trail
But look out, don't go off the rails

If you could go into the future
And then back in the time you are
What things would you change
To prevent the past scars?
There's no future
It's the present becoming past
There's no future
We can't live this fast
Be careful with your life through the time you last
You’re all the time into the future
