Lyrics for The Shape of Things to Come

There's a new sun Rising up angry in the sky There's a new voice Crying 'we're not afraid to die' Let the old one Make believe it's blind and deaf and dumb But nothing can change the shape of things to come There are changes Lying ahead on every road There are new thoughts Ready and waiting to explode When tomorrow is today The bells may toll for some But nothing can change the shape of things to come The future's coming on now sweet and strong And no-one gonna hold it back for long There are young dreams Crowding out old realities Revolutions Sweeping in like a fresh new breeze Let the old one Make believe it's blind and deaf and dumb Nothing can change the shape of things Nothing can change the shape of things Nothing can change the shape of things Nothing can change the shape of things Nothing can change the shape of things to come
