The Kooks - Modern Days lyrics
[The Kooks - Modern Days lyrics]
Something's telling me I got to turn away
From the life I had, I shouldn't hesitate
Walk like an animal into the world of glass
Seems so fragile, yeah
Nothing was built to last
All the lovers you had
All the lives that you led mean nothing
It's trickling down and I can't
Hear a sound they make
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we live for these modern days)
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we livе for these modern days)
(Wе live for these modern days
Oh babe we live for these modern days)
This is bigger than the fear of atom bombs
The truth is on sale at your local restaurant
The time for selling out has
Been and gone and died
Music lover in a whirlwind not your time
Afraid of the shadows I send
I know I got to get up to the ceiling again
(In the modern days)
Put me out of my misery now
I won't slip away
But I know what I want you say
And the atoms in my heart all pray together
I'll hold you forever
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we live for these modern days)
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we live for these modern days)
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe we live for these modern days)
Way up in my room, telling all my secrets
In the modern days
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we live for these modern days)
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we live for these modern days)
From the life I had, I shouldn't hesitate
Walk like an animal into the world of glass
Seems so fragile, yeah
Nothing was built to last
All the lovers you had
All the lives that you led mean nothing
It's trickling down and I can't
Hear a sound they make
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we live for these modern days)
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we livе for these modern days)
(Wе live for these modern days
Oh babe we live for these modern days)
This is bigger than the fear of atom bombs
The truth is on sale at your local restaurant
The time for selling out has
Been and gone and died
Music lover in a whirlwind not your time
Afraid of the shadows I send
I know I got to get up to the ceiling again
(In the modern days)
Put me out of my misery now
I won't slip away
But I know what I want you say
And the atoms in my heart all pray together
I'll hold you forever
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we live for these modern days)
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we live for these modern days)
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe we live for these modern days)
Way up in my room, telling all my secrets
In the modern days
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we live for these modern days)
In the modern days
(We live for these modern days
Oh babe, we live for these modern days)
