Lyrics This Future - Qingyuan

Imagination haunts me when I close my eyes
Jolted awake from the toxic dopamine drive

I see a future where you hold my hand
I grit my teeth, cuz I know that I can't

That future tells the tales of you and me
That version of you always smiles at me

But I choose you, the real you
I choose reality
Cuz nothing's more beautiful
Than this awkward intimacy

That future with you is where I wanna be
But it's nothing more than selfish fantasy

I wonder if our family would understand
I wonder if we'll do a double date with friends

But hallucination never does me good
Appreciating the moment is what I should

Cuz You're a living breathing human being
My imagination can't compete

You talk, you laugh and you yell at me
You speak your mind in sincerity

Your smile can always reach your eyes
We sing, our voices harmonize

This future might not consist of you and me
And I'll probably miss how you smiled at me

But it's OK, I let you go
If you come back I'll hold you close
And if you don't, I'll learn to cope
I won't give in to my sorrow

This future is much brighter when we're free
I feel your heartbeat far across the sea

This future is much brighter when we're free
I feel your heartbeat far across the sea
