Modern Day Songtext
von Bloxx

I used to listen to the birds sing
On my way to work
But now it′s late in the evenin'
And they′re nowhere to be heard
Take for granted all the little things
What I'd do to break our foolish sins

When everything's in flames

Head underwater whilst the world′s on fire
You′re sitting in a corner watching time expire
You want to make a difference but you're not inspired
But it it won′t change is the modern day

And everyone seems happy but they're not inside
Cover up the cracks with another lie
Burying the hatchet just to say goodbye
But it it won′t change is the modern day


And now I hate hearing the clock ring
Wish it would go in reverse
Because the time that we are lost in
Is only making it worse
Incandescent underneath your skin
Light me up and watch the choir sing

Whilst everything's in flames

Head underwater whilst the world′s on fire
You're sitting in a corner watching time expire
You want to make a difference but you're not inspired
But it it won′t change is the modern day

And everyone seems happy but they′re not inside
Cover up the cracks with another lie
Burying the hatchet just to say goodbye
But it it won't change is the modern day

(Modern day)
(It won′t change is the modern day)
(Modern day)
(It won't change is the modern day)

If we can change then we go forward

Head underwater whilst the world′s on fire
You're sitting in a corner watching time expire
You want to make a difference but you′re not inspired
But it it won't change is the modern day


And everyone seems happy but they're not inside
Cover up the cracks with another lie
Burying the hatchet just to say goodbye
But it it won′t change is the modern day

(Modern day)
(It won′t change is the modern day)
