I always believed in futures
A hope for better, in November
Drive the same losing lucky numbers
It could be a cold night, for a lifetime
Hey now, you can't keep saying endlessly
My darling, how long until this suffers me
* Say hello to good times
Trade off for the fast rides
We close our eyes while the nickel and dime
Take the streets, completely
I always could count on futures
Things would look up, they'd look up
Why so hard to find a balance
Between living decent and the cold unreal.
Hey now, what is it you think you see
My darling, now's your time to disagree
[Repeat *]
Hey now, the past is told by those who win
My darling, what matters is what hasn't been
Hey now, we're wide awake and were thinking
My darling, believe your voice can mean something
[Repeat *]
We close our eyes while the nickel and dime
Take the streets, completely
