Lyrics
[verse]
I walk the avenue with my collar high
Counting all the signals passing by
Everybody's chasing something they can't name
Falling into patterns, playing the same game
[verse]
I don't need a reason, don't need a call
I just need the noise to catch me when I fall
Churches on the corner, phones against my ear
Nothing feels quite solid, nothing feels quite clear
[chorus]
Modern love walks beside me
Modern love keeps me company
Modern love, it never holds me tight
Modern love just gets me through the night
[verse]
I keep asking questions nobody can solve
Watching all the couples slowly dissolve
Maybe love was never built to last this way
Maybe it's just noise that helps us through the day
[chorus]
Modern love walks beside me
Modern love keeps me company
Modern love, it never holds me tight
Modern love just gets me through the night
[bridge]
Terrified of silence, terrified of sound
Looking for a reason to stay above the ground
I don't know the answer, don't know where it's from
I just keep on moving till the morning comes
[chorus]
Modern love walks beside me
Modern love keeps me company
Modern love, it never holds me tight
Modern love just gets me through the night
