“INTO THE FUTURE”
(N. MICHALAK)

I can show you the future
I can show you the past
I can show you what you’ve missed
And what you don’t dare miss

I can make the future into the past
I can change your fate if I so dare
I can show you what shall soon be
If you dare to see what will be

(Chorus)
  The future is coming closer
  It can be feared
  Or can be embraced
  Just tell me your choice
  So we go on into the future

No, I cannot change what you regret
Nor can I remove it from your memory
I cannot remove your fear of what is
Or of what will be

(Chorus)
  The future is coming closer
  It can be feared
  Or can be embraced
  Just tell me your choice
  So we go on into the future

Do not make your escape from it all
Do not run from what should be
You just have to put your trust in me
And we can see what could be

(Chorus)
  The future is coming closer
  It can be feared
  Or can be embraced
  Just tell me your choice
  So we go on into the future

Into the future
(On into the future)
Into the future
(On into the future)
Let’s go on into the future
Into the future tonight

Don't ask me what this one is about because I don't know....and I FRICKIN' WROTE THE THING!  I honestly have no clue what I was talking or thinking about when I wrote this.  Probably just something that spilled out from random thoughts or words that circulated through my mind one day.  Make-up your own meaning because I'm at a loss.  Maybe it's about accepting the past to move forward into the future, or simply, accepting change as it can be either feared or embraced.  Although, my philosophy is that change is the nature of the universe, and that you CANNOT escape it, even through death.  Why?  Because even when you die, your body will decompose or be creamated and will still undergo change.  From the moment we enter existence to well after we're all dead & gone, we're at the mercy of change.  To ignore change is to ignore everything around us.  The world will change with or without us because that is the nature of the universe.  Now, the meaning of life....well....I'll get back to you on that.  One mystery of the universe at a time.
