modern world

the alarm goes off, another monday morning, just one more time you wake up in this mess, and baby it scares you but you catch yourself, you do whatever you do to face the test, i know you feel alone in this great big world machine, it's crazy, but maybe there's a soul somewhere out there, who's just like you now what are you waiting for, baby don't mourn what might have been, here's the only world we're living in, this is the modern world, this is the modern world, this is the modern world, and this is all it's going to be, living in the modern world. yeah, the telephone rings, another faceless caller, you're not a soul you're just a number, you're looking at families living on the street, where mama can't buy her baby enough to eat, we all feel alone, in this great big world machine, but baby, just maybe listen to your heart, i don't know just what you're waiting for, cause baby here's just where you begin, in the only world we're living in
