Testo Modern Day - Bloxx

Modern Day

I used to listen to the birds sing
On my way to work
But now it’s late in the evening
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 wanna make a difference but you’re not inspired
But it, it won’t change, it’s 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, it’s 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 wanna make a difference but you’re not inspired
But it, it won’t change, it’s 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, it’s the modern day
Modern day
(It won’t change, it’s the modern day)
Modern day
(It won’t change, it’s 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 wanna make a difference but you’re not inspired
But it, it won’t change, it’s 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, it’s the modern day
Modern day
(It won’t change, it’s the modern day)
