Modern Act Lyrics - Cloud Nothings

Here we are among the living 

See and count your friends 

Gathered in a room together 

This is how it ends 

Can't stand the modern act 

Whose war is this, what god is that? 

Feels like the tide is only 

Starting to come in 

Do you know what it's like 

To be out and alive? 

To say you're doing alright 

Yeah, you're doing just fine? 

When you feel like an ocean 

Coming out of a creek 

Filling rivers to wait for you 

Wherever you are 

When you're out and around 

And all you ever see 

Are people looking away 

It's nothing new to me 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

Calling on the light, forgiving 

See to all and then 

Waiting on the old, expiring force 

To go and end 

Can't stand the modern act 

Whose war is this, what god is that? 

Feels like the tide is only 

Starting to come in 

Do you know what it's like 

To be out and alive? 

To say you're doing alright 

Yeah, you're doing just fine? 

When you feel like an ocean 

Coming out of a creek 

Filling rivers to wait for you 

Wherever you are? 

When you're out and around 

And all you ever see 

Are people looking away? 

It's nothing new to me 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

Left the light on to take account 

Of all the fire in me 

Won't come over and make it out 

A little lighter to see 

Left the light on you 

Take account of all the fire in me 

Won't come over and make it out 

A little lighter to see 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone 

I want a life, that's all I need lately 

I am alive but all alone
