In Store

[Silence]

[Arrangement: Piano-driven rock, Hammond organ, bass, drums, electric guitar, layered backing vocals]

[Intro]
Does anybody know
(How it unfolds)
The future hides
(What it holds)

[Verse 1]
Reading headlines
(Day by day)
Trying to guess
(Any which way)

Looking for answers
(In the noise)
Trying to separate
(Facts from ploys)

The world keeps moving
(Faster still)
Beyond our plans
(Beyond our will)

[Pre-Chorus]
Around the corner
(Beyond the door)
Something different
(Than before)

[Chorus]
What’s in store?
(We’re not sure anymore)
What’s to come?
(Just can’t ask anyone)

What’s ahead?
(Beyond the things we’ve read)
What’s in store?
(We’re not sure anymore)

[Refrain]
Round and round
(The wheel turns)
Lesson learned?
(Or lesson burns?)

Round and round
(The wheel turns)

[Verse 2]
The atmosphere
(Keeps score)
Heat accumulates
(More and more)

Yesterday’s records
(Fall away)
Making room
(For a different day)

What seemed impossible
(Not long ago)
Now arrives
(Row by row)

[Pre-Chorus]
Around the corner
(Beyond the door)
Something different
(Than before)

[Chorus]
What’s in store?
(We’re not sure anymore)
What’s to come?
(Just can’t ask anyone)

What’s ahead?
(Beyond the things we’ve read)
What’s in store?
(We’re not sure anymore)

[Bridge]
The future isn’t written
(In stone)
We’re all passengers
(And will be shown)

[Instrumental]
[Piano Solo]
[Organ Solo]

[Verse 3]
Choices matter
(More than we know)
Seeds we plant
(Are what will grow)

Every action
(Leaves a trace)
Every generation
(Sets the pace)

[Final Chorus]
What’s in store?
(We’re not sure anymore)
What’s to come?
(Just can’t ask anyone)

What’s ahead?
(Beyond the things we’ve read)
What’s in store?
(We’re not sure anymore)

What’s in store?
(Behind the closed door)
What’s to come?
(For everyone)

[Outro]
Nobody knows
(Exactly where)
But tomorrow’s waiting
(Out there)

What’s in store?
(We’re not sure anymore)
