We dream about the future
Weave myths about the past
Don't notice today
Misty and grey
It's drifting away
Sometimes I wonder what we're all here for
Lost in confusion, can't find the door
Every day we try to read the crystal ball
But our reflections we can't find at all
We dream about the future
Weave myths about the past
Don't notice today
Misty and grey
It's drifting away
There are so many things we talk about
But why, and what we mean, I can't work out
Why are we living? Why do we contrive
To mechanise ourselves until we're half alive?
We dream about the future
Weave myths about the past
Don't notice today
Misty and grey
It's drifting away
Can't blow the fog away
Can't start to see
No matter what I say
Can't find the key
We dream about the future
Weave myths about the past
Don't notice today
Misty and grey
It's drifting away
