Oh baby won't you wait
Until you're old enough
So grace and please don't
Make me take your name in vain
You're calling up the pain
So please don't
Make me suffer
Please don't
Choose another
Please don't
Celebrate
Only she'll
Decapitate now...
Modern saints
For modern hopefuls
Modern saints
For modern hopefuls
Modern saints
For modern hopefuls
Modern saints
For modern hopefuls
Modern saints
For modern hopefuls
Modern saints
For modern hopefuls
Baby won't you wait
Till we are old enough
So great, so please don't
Make me take your name in vain
So calling off the pain
So please don't
Make me suffer
Please don't
Choose another
Don't
Compensate
It only seems
To complicate now
Modern saints
For modern hopefuls
Modern saints
For modern hopefuls
Modern saints
For modern hopefuls
Modern saints
For modern hopefuls
So the days
Turn to nights
Ripping my life away
Whats in store?
Take my hand
Close that door
Tearing my heart away
Evermore
Turn the nights
Say goodbye
(?)
(?)
Take my hand
Say goodnight
Take the days
Evermore...
