Matthew And The Atlas – Modern World lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don't feel right, I couldn't find a way
Running at midnight, I'm sleeping in the day
Nothing's forever, nothing in the end
It doesn't matter, we can still pretend
[Verse 2]
We're burning the years, they're burning in the sky
Feel too connected, rivers in your eyes
Need to dissect it, it's taking up my time
Need to direct it
[Chorus]
I couldn't face it
I couldn't face it, the modern world
You can't fake it
You can't fake it, you're a fading sun
You can make it
You can make it, when you don't need anyone
Not anyone
[Verse 3]
You're part of the pack now, there's nothing you can bring
Part of the motion, a puppet on a string
I can't change it and even if I could
I can't see it or do any good
[Chorus]
I couldn't face it
I couldn't face it, the modern world
You can't fake it
You can't fake it, you're a fading sun
You can make it
You can make it, when you don't need anyone
Not anyone
I couldn't face it, the modern world
You can't fake it, you're a fading sun
You can make it, when you don't need anyone
I don't feel right, I couldn't find a way
Running at midnight, I'm sleeping in the day
Nothing's forever, nothing in the end
It doesn't matter, we can still pretend
[Verse 2]
We're burning the years, they're burning in the sky
Feel too connected, rivers in your eyes
Need to dissect it, it's taking up my time
Need to direct it
[Chorus]
I couldn't face it
I couldn't face it, the modern world
You can't fake it
You can't fake it, you're a fading sun
You can make it
You can make it, when you don't need anyone
Not anyone
[Verse 3]
You're part of the pack now, there's nothing you can bring
Part of the motion, a puppet on a string
I can't change it and even if I could
I can't see it or do any good
[Chorus]
I couldn't face it
I couldn't face it, the modern world
You can't fake it
You can't fake it, you're a fading sun
You can make it
You can make it, when you don't need anyone
Not anyone
I couldn't face it, the modern world
You can't fake it, you're a fading sun
You can make it, when you don't need anyone
