2492 Lyrics

To Give You The Stars 2492

Verse 1

The future is black. That much is certain.
The present is grey. That much is true.
Hidden from sun beneath a dirt curtain,
Whole generations who've never seen blue.

Prechorus

Let the record show
In the twenty-fifth of our centuries
Man will near his end.

Chorus

This is the world. Near unrecognizable.
Not the Mother Earth that you knew.
This is the world in a state that's unforgivable.
This is what it is to live in 2492.

Verse 2

The future is black. That much is certain.
The preset is grey. Survive and demean.
Crammed in like cattle and fed malnutrition,
Whole generations who've never touched green.
