Matthew and the Atlas Modern World song lyrics

I don't feel right, I couldn't find a way

Running at midnight, I'm sleeping in the day

Nothing's for ever, nothing in the end

It doesn't matter, we can still pretend

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

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

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, even if I could

I can't see it, or do any good

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, this modern world

You can't fake it, you're a fading sun

You can make it, when you don't need anyone
