The Future - The Rentals

Two cities on top of each other sleep in the stillness of night

Down in the 2nd Street tunnel lost in a thousand reflecting lights

There was a civilization that built these buildings with pride

They left the city abandoned-

Who knows how the dream of the future died?

There must be some hope in the future

This is the story of all that was beautiful and true

This is the ending of all that was sleeping inside you

And it’s the start of something new (x2)

Down in the 2nd Street tunnel a dream of the future appears

There are these voices around me

That want to know what I’m doing here

(In the future)
