Matthew Good - 21st Century Living lyrics

Remember the nights

We looked for new words

When we woke up

Wechose our world

A walk in cold streets

A talk about strange things

Is light misleading, misleading

Now the time is passing over my head

My senses are set free, but

Will you cry when I die

Shall I cry when you die

Who said why

So let me tell you now goodbye

I say a bee is happy in its hive

I swear I tried to run by your side

But turn out the light

I swear I tried to run by your side

But turn on the night, who said why

Remember the rules

Of our different games

We painted out teeth

And changed our named

Then you bursted into tears

Watching birds dissected

Is light misleading, misleading

Now the ice, freezing under my skin

My motions are getting harder

But now

Will you cry when I die

Shall I cry when you die

Who said why

So let me tell you now goodbye

I say a bee is happy in its hive

I swear I tried to run by your side

But turn out the light

I swear I tried to run by your side

But turn on the night, who said why

I swear I tried to run by your side

But turn out the light

I swear I tried to run by your side

But turn on the night, who said why
