Modern Age
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why so afraid to fall that was then this is now
Horizons look different in a modern age
Are we all lost are we all lost again
Fall asleep alone safer than the off chance of getting
Your heart attacked one more time
Will you ever come, will you ever come alive again
Don’t we all want to belong
Don’t we all write our own song
Let our silence break tonight
Don’t we all learn right from wrong
And don’t we all want to be loved
Let our silence break tonight
Come now elusive sign open up their eyes to see
So many of us are just the same as you
Have we all hid ourselves, have we all hid ourselves from friends
So much else to give this is her and that is him
Close your eyes imagine them holding you
Will you ever find, will you ever find the words again
(Sing it) don't we all want to belong
(Sing it) don't we all write out own song
Let our silence break tonight
(Sing it) don't we all learn right from wrong
(Sing it) and don't we all want to be loved
Let our silence break tonight
There is so much less that we have to lose here
The more we give away
Futures will never keep their promises
If all we hold is yesterday
