lyrics

Make your manifesto a blind ode to joy
Tear down the blankets, your time was wasted
Bleed another life force, all words are stupid
No other methods are so crass, tired and tasteless
Waking on a Sunday, living out of suitcases
Black Market Futures
Make it on Tuesday, otherwise it’s useless
For Black Market Futures
Tear down the records and burn down the bookcase
Grandfather’s clockwork is failed, worn and faceless,
“Ding dong” the bells ring
The chimes of the charmless
The burdens of the future will be forever timeless
Waking on a Sunday, living out of suitcases
Black Market Futures
Make it on Tuesday, otherwise it’s useless
For Black Market Futures
The burnt out starlight and broke imaginations of
Black Market Futures
Hollow out the lamplight and wear that tie right
It’s Black Market Futures
We are starting over again.
This is our revolution
We know it can happen again
Welcome to Black Market Futures
