Matt Nathanson - Modern Love
She said this talkin'
Just kinda wears me out
And all these salesmen
Baby make me tired
They're no good
But tell you the truth she said
I've been getting' used to liars
They sing me love songs
With store-bought words
They make promises like politicians
So we stumble and we disconnect
Over and over again
This modern love is not enough
She said watch your back
I'm nobody's girlfriend
This modern love is not enough
Oh oh oh oh oh
They said one big exhale never did me no - good
I let ‘em in, I
Oh man I let ‘em win
I burned my house down
Just to hear ‘em scream my name
I've carried hope
On heavy daydreams
She said
But I'm done with sleepin'
Take the phone calls
Take this circus
Take the drama
Cuz baby it's worthless
This modern love is not enough
She said watch your back
I'm nobody's girlfriend
This modern love is not enough
Oh oh oh oh oh
They said one big exhale never did me no - good
One big exhale never did me no good
And the bright light shines
Still we ache and we break and we try
The stage lights shine
And they blind our eyes
To it all
Oh oh
Still we ache and we break and we just can't
Get it right
This modern love is not enough
She said watch your back
I'm nobody's girlfriend
This modern love is not enough
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh
This modern love
Yeah it's a taco truck
Come on take the phone calls
And I'll take the silence
This modern love is not enough
Oh oh oh oh
Oh yeah
One big exhale
Never did me no good
One exhale
One big exhale yeah
One exhale
Never did me no good
Oh never did me no good
