[Verse 1]
I got two open eyes, now I'm on the other side
Happy in my second life, headset on
I could be anything, let me be your Midas king
Think of all the joy I'd bring, touching everything

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been trying to catch a fever dream
In the desert, give me deep blue sea
We ain't nothing but the things we've seen
Plug me in

[Chorus]
So give me the future, it's golden and bright
Catch a fever dream in the flash of thе lights
Now nothing is certain and the song isn't done
Thе new melodies rise up with the Sun
Give me the future

[Verse 2]
Suddenly found my feet, dreaming of electric sheep
Just a little space to breathe, feeling joy serene

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been trying to catch a fever dream
In the desert, give me deep blue sea
We ain't nothing but the things we've seen
Plug me in

[Chorus]
So give me the future, it's golden and bright
Catch a fever dream in the flash of the lights
Now nothing is certain and the song isn't done
The new melodies rise up with the Sun

[Post-Chorus]
I tasted endless love that takes control
Endless love and I wanted more (So give me the future)
I tasted endless love that takes control
Endless love and I wanted more (Just give me the future)

[Bridge]
Why would we leave?
Why would we leave?
Miles and miles of fake beauty
It's good for you, it's good for me
Why would we leave?
Why would we leave? Uh

[Chorus]
So give me the future, it's golden and bright
Catch a fever dream in the flash of the lights
Now nothing is certain and the song isn't done
The new melodies rise up with the Sun

[Outro]
I tasted endless love that takes control
Endless love and I wanted more (So give me the future)
I tasted endless love that takes control
Endless love and I wanted more
Catch a fever dream in the flash of the lights

Bastille

Bastille is a British indie pop band. After releasing a limited single in 2010 and the Laura Palmer EP in 2011, the band was signed to Virgin Records. Following their signing, the band released two mix-tapes – Other People’s Heartache and Other People’s Heartache Pt. 2 — for free. In an interview with The Guardian, Dan Smith discussed the

Someone recently said to ‘The mixtapes were very clever, was that the label’s idea?’ Actually the label were completely against it; we were stealing and sampling illegally left, right and centre. The label ‘We want nothing to do with this.’ When it came to hosting the mixtapes, I had to register the website myself.

Preceding the release of their debut album, Bad Blood, the band released several singles — “Overjoyed”, “Bad Blood” and “Flaws”— to moderate commercial success. In February 2013, the band was catapulted into the charts by the album’s fourth single, “Pompeii”. The song was a commercial hit, going up to 5x Platinum around the world. In June 2014, “Pompeii” was confirmed to be the United Kingdom’s most streamed song ever. Unfortunately, it has since been overtaken.
