Come Tomorrow
Chicane Lyrics

If I talked to god he'd tell me why
Despite my ignorance, I believe God could explain the mysteries of life

There's something going on
I sense that there is something unusual or strange happening around me

Dark people walking by
I see people who appear mysterious or perhaps dangerous

This morning is the day after the next
I am keenly aware of the passage of time

Escape my only dream
All I want is to escape from reality by dreaming or fantasizing

'Cause I'm the only one again
I feel alone and nobody else understands me

But life is better spent inside your world
I believe that living in my own inner world is preferable to dealing with reality

Butterfly that sings
A beautiful, delicate creature that brings joy to the world around it

Causes me to fall once more
Seeing something so beautiful reminds me of how difficult it is to live in the real world

Tomorrow you are only half a friend
People are unreliable and cannot be trusted fully

Machines control your mind
I believe that technology has too much power over our lives

And neon strips above my head
I am surrounded by artificial lights that make me feel disconnected from nature

Come tomorrow, come tomorrow
I am eagerly anticipating a future that may be better than the present

There's never been an answer
Despite my questions and searching, there are some things that cannot be explained

There's always someone else to follow
People look to others for guidance and direction, rather than thinking for themselves

And you are coming down, and you are coming down
You are losing your power and influence over me

Giving me the reasons for your lies
You are explaining why you have not been truthful with me

And when you turn me inside out
When you make me feel vulnerable or exposed

Don't know what you feel or dream about
I cannot understand your thoughts or motivations

And then you take me upside down
You turn my world upside down, causing disruption and chaos

Remember my face, my name, my town
Do not forget who I am, no matter what happens

When I think of god he knows my mind
I believe God understands my thoughts and feelings, even if nobody else does

I'm wondering what's wrong
I am questioning what is happening and why things seem strange

What will the devil find
I fear that evil or negative forces may be at work around me

Tomorrow you will find there's no way out
You will realize that you are trapped and cannot escape your problems

With nowhere left to turn
You will have run out of options and feel hopeless

There's no place left to hide from him
You cannot avoid God's judgment or punishment for your actions

In a city made of sand
I am living in an impermanent, fragile place that could easily crumble and fall apart

We found our way out
Despite the challenges, we managed to escape or overcome our struggles

But without a helping hand
We needed assistance to succeed or survive

We're free
We have achieved freedom or liberation from our problems
