Everything you've ever done and all you hope to be
All of the plans you make
Restless as you lie awake
The book collection on your shelf you'd hope she'd see
And all the hours spent searching for something to believe
I heard a story that this wouldn't always be
Something would happen that would shake these city streets
I don't know how or when, but surely it must be
By war or by disease
None of this will matter in a thousand years
No-one's gonna sing this song
As civilisation disappears
Don't be so serious
When nothing's changed
Just keep on playing all of your favourite games
So picture all your pa**ions being buried in the sand
Labeled incorrectly in a language you don't understand
It takes much more than clever words to show you care
So when that day comes best be sure that nothing's left unsaid
You'll find that time is growing faster every day
You'll see the barriers are standing in your way
You'll find the answer, then you'll find the question's changed
Well isn't that the way?
None of this will matter in a thousand years
No-one's gonna sing this song
As civilisation disappears
Don't be so serious
When nothing's changed
Just keep on playing all of your favourite games
