Modern Being Songtext
von Dawn Chorus

I don′t know why i still try
I don't know why i still mind


Hey darling
Where you been
Glassy wide-eyed
With your head spinning
And your jaw hangs open
Slurring verse you know is
In reverse
So she said
This modern being
What′s it mean
Humming to herself
With slight complacency
It always gets too scattered
To put it back together
In the right order

I don't know why i still try
I don't know why i still mind my manners

She picks the pretty flowers into her coat
She′ll post them later when she′s home all alone
She waits for better weather to make her moves
When birds are chirping her favorite tune

Wishfully
Doomscrolling
Huddled round the glow
Of the tiny screen
And she can't live with it
But couldn′t live without it
Oh my god

I don't know why i still try
I don′t know why i still mind
