The anger, confusion, I can't seem to understand
In silence, I wonder, is it out of my hands
I see their hunger, I feel their power
Big plans for the modern world
Don't see them die in the arms of the nation
Nobody dies in the modern world
I look around and I see the madness
Dragging me under
(dragging me under)
I feel the love but I still see the sadness
Livin' in the modern world
I hear the words of men in high places
They have the answers
(always the one you want)
I see the evil through smiles on their faces
(Livin' in the modern world)
I don't understand, how we have come this far
When all this over, will they still be where they are
I see their power, I feel their hunger
Big plans for the modern world
Don't see them die in the arms of the nation
Nobody dies in the modern world
I look around and I see the madness
Dragging me under
(dragging me under)
I feel the love but I still see the sadness
Livin' in the modern world
I hear the words of men in high places
They have the answers
(always the one you want)
I see the evil through smiles on their faces
(Livin' in the modern world)
I look around and I see the madness
Dragging me under
(dragging me under)
I feel the love but I still see the sadness
Livin' in the modern world
I hear the words of men in high places
They have the answers
(always the one you want)
I see the evil through smiles on their faces
(Livin' in the modern world)
Modern World
(Dragging me under)
I feel the love but I still see the sadness
(Livin' in the modern world)
Modern World
(Always the one you want)
I see the evil through smiles on their faces
(Livin' in the modern world)
