How To Dress Well – House Inside (Future Is Older Than The Past) lyrics
No mercy baby always crying
No open the sea out on the water
I see the world through so much poison
Didnât bury his own father
Just a few years ago she told you
âWe think itâs new but the future is olderâ
I canât understand how the world could hold up
All this pain and all this weight
Iâm not asking you to just wait for tomorrow
Deep in your chest stay sequestered and somber
Now instead I guess Iâll smash my fists on the walls of
This emptiness, baby, this house inside
If you could hope so much, change everything!
But you know the future holds more deadly, deadly things!
And I canât help you out unless you tell me, tell me things!
And who could have ever known you were running on empty, empty babe?!
When your face is opened up, thereâs so many, many things!
These stories of the world before any, anything
Had crawled out on this globe, these deadly, deadly things!
Yet you came back for me, such a pretty, pretty thingâŠ
Yet you came back for me
Such a pretty, pretty thing
The future is older than the past
Every new day carries the weight of the last
The future is older than the past
Every new day carries the weight of the last
Ya if I could Iâd hold your face in my hand and stop your sighing
âOh I know this earth, this earth is just so giant
Got you thinking that youâre nothingâ
But mama your pain and your silence
Fills my future with such hopeless
Hopeless fear that the world wonât be my home that
My heart canât bear this journey through the night!
No open the sea out on the water
I see the world through so much poison
Didnât bury his own father
Just a few years ago she told you
âWe think itâs new but the future is olderâ
I canât understand how the world could hold up
All this pain and all this weight
Iâm not asking you to just wait for tomorrow
Deep in your chest stay sequestered and somber
Now instead I guess Iâll smash my fists on the walls of
This emptiness, baby, this house inside
If you could hope so much, change everything!
But you know the future holds more deadly, deadly things!
And I canât help you out unless you tell me, tell me things!
And who could have ever known you were running on empty, empty babe?!
When your face is opened up, thereâs so many, many things!
These stories of the world before any, anything
Had crawled out on this globe, these deadly, deadly things!
Yet you came back for me, such a pretty, pretty thingâŠ
Yet you came back for me
Such a pretty, pretty thing
The future is older than the past
Every new day carries the weight of the last
The future is older than the past
Every new day carries the weight of the last
Ya if I could Iâd hold your face in my hand and stop your sighing
âOh I know this earth, this earth is just so giant
Got you thinking that youâre nothingâ
But mama your pain and your silence
Fills my future with such hopeless
Hopeless fear that the world wonât be my home that
My heart canât bear this journey through the night!
