Strum
D-DU-UDU
 x2
The  city's made of diamonds
 And tomorrow  glass will grow
 All the freedoms  that divide us
 They're  coming after me
Flashback  1984
 Now who's  knock, knocking at your door
 A thought  that starts a riot
 They're  coming after me
Now,  life is not the  same
 I am  one, but sparks turn into flames
 Will you  take what's in my head
 And erase  me when I'm dead
 Cause the  future is now
 Now  I'm disappearing
 The  day has turned to night
 Can you save  me from the light?
 Cause the  future is here
 This  is how I disappear
Running  down a spiral
 With the light  of better men
 Shouting  progress is survival
 Take one  last look and see me
Now  you see me, now you don't
 No  valid break, no string of hope
 My  hero your pariah
 They're  coming after me
Now  life is just God's  game
I  am one, but sparks turn into  flames
 And you  get what you deserve
 When  revenge is what you serve
 Cause the  future is now
 Now  I'm disappearing
 I sink  into the night
 And I'm turning  off the lights
 Cause the  future is here
 This  is how I disappear
So  the end's when you  make that
 And that's what your  looking for
This  is the  future
 Future  is now
 Disappear
 Disappear
 I disappear
 Disappear
 Now  turn off the lights
 The skys are blue  inside you
 Turn off  the lights
 They'll get inside  of you
 Will you  take whats in my head
 And erase  me when I'm dead
 Cause the  future is now
 Now  I'm disappearing
 The  day has turned to night
 Can you  save me from the light?
 Cause the  future is here
 This  is how I disappear
 disappear
 disappear
 disappear
