Vanessa’s explanation of “Future Pain” - This song is about repeating a pattern we know has the same unhappy ending and finding comfort in a pattern that is self destructive. Choosing dark over light. There is darkness in all of us. When and why do we let it win?

Lyrics:
Old habits creep
Coming in the way they came before
Slowly filling in
Until you have an ocean at your door…
There you are again
Sitting at the same spot at the bar
Saturn returned many moons ago…
But you weren’t looking to the stars…
You come around here with your sad sad eyes…
I know where this is going it won’t be a surprise…
I’ve got nothing to lose and nothing to gain but future pain…
Turn down the lights
Drink enough until we see each other right…
This place won’t bite but it won’t save you either
We’re going down tonight
I'm staring down your sad sad eyes
I know where this is going it won’t be a surprise
I’ve got nothing to lose and nothing to gain but future pain
Bad boys become sad boys
it’s only cute when you’re young…
Your wild phase was a short game
good days are gone…gone
We’re going down tonight
We’re going down tonight
I’ve got nothing to lose and nothing to gain but future pain
I’ve got nothing to lose and nothing to gain but future pain
