Hostage Calm – Past Ideas Of The Future lyrics
The shows we watched when we were kids
Jetsons’ spacecars, Apollo ships
That we could shrink the world to fit
The big dreams of broken kids

That someday, skyways, speedtrains and flying cars
Would keep us safe from the fools we are;
Genetics and bionics could
Make this place a bit more honest;
That we would know we stayed good on the promise

That love was a war worth fighting
And that someday the war would end

The distance, and the moral conflict
Of living far from how we wanted
The arc of our lives was something we could bend

I wrapped my hopes in everything ahead

But in the backseat of somebody else’s car
There would be a price for having gone this far:
That we could live with broken hearts
We couldn’t stand to see the pieces laying so far apart

We finally climbed the steel high rise
To see the world we’d left behind
That the years would be so unkind to us

We’d shy away in horror at what we’d done
That good intentions just weren’t enough
That all these years spent fighting
And still we’re only here

Still without peace, still without cure
Still without peace, still without cure
Still without peace, still without cure

For Loneliness
For Hatred
Depression
And Regret:

The memory of you that I cannot forget

‘Cause it’s in my skin like the sutures:
These past ideas of the future
