By/My/Song

To be lost in the forest, to be caught adrift 
You've been trying to reach me, you bought me a book 
To be lost in the forest, to be caught adrift
I've been paid, I've been paid 

To be lost in the forest, to be caught adrift
You've been trying to reach me, you bought me a book 
To be lost in the forest, to be caught adrift
I've been paid, I've been wait, I've been...

Don't get offended, if I seem absent minded 
Just keep telling me facts, and keep making me smarter
And don't get offended, if I seem absent minded 
I get tongue-tied

Baby, you've got to, be more discerning 
I've never known, what's good for me 
Baby, you've got, to be more demanding 
I will be yours

I'll pay for you, anytime
I'll pay for you, anytime

And you told me you wanted, to eat up my sadness 
Well jump on, enjoy, you can gorge away 
You told me you wanted, to eat up my sadness 
Jump right

Baby, you've got to be more discerning 
I've known never known what's good for me 
And baby, you've got to be more demanding 
Jump left

What are you holding out for? 
What's always in the way?
Why so damn absent-minded? 
Why so scared of romance?

This modern love, breaks me
This modern love, wastes me
This modern love, breaks me
This modern love, wastes me
