Modern World

I chased the bright moonlight
Tasted gasoline
Played into someone's plans and fell into the sea

Everything that you want
Could be complete in a modern world
You carry weight but you can't relate
Who's asking now?
A boy or a girl

I wanna wake up in your car
White diamonds shine it's who we are
Ordinary people, no one cares
About a washed up millionaire
Everything that you want could be complete
In a modern world
Everything that you mean to me
Reminds me times
Of little communication

I walked away from you
In a modern world
I slept beneath your breath
Inside a priced out pearl

I think you caught me coming to your house
I lied and I cried
Like a little child
People always say you can't protect the past
And you listening? Are you even there?

Mashed potatoes, broken keyboards
Two for Tuesdays, stupid window
Temporary, secretary
Call your ex-wife, happy birthday

I wanna wake up in your car
White diamonds shine it's who we are
Ordinary people, no one cares
About a washed up millionaire
Everything that you want could be complete
In a modern world
Everything that you want could be complete
In a modern world
Everything that you want could be complete
In a modern world
Everything that you mean to me
Reminds me times
No matter who you are

I walked away from you
In a modern world
