Momentum - Modern Life Is War

Down the old staircase

I’m walking out the door

I feel lost here tonight

Everything has changed

Since that summer before

Stumbling forward

I’m glancing back

There’s no one in the window begging me to come back!

The streetlights are burning

But I’m not yet ready for this day to be done

'Cus I always come up short

I’m always lusting for something more

And so I push

Right into the night!

Harder and harder

'Til my heart beats just right!

Across downtown and over the tracks

Exhaustion taking hold

Down to the place I love

Where nobody knows!

Old photographs much too late at night

I Dream of times

I wish I could leave behind

And I always Wake up ugly and dissatisfied

I’ve gotta change my mind!

Change my pride!

Change my life!

Get down to the root of the problem

Cure my misdirection

'Cus all the laughs die

At closing time!

And I lie awake wondering why

I’m an all or nothing kid

And why I’ve been feeling like

Nothing!

All of the time!

Where do I go?!

Am I on my own?!

Where do I go?!

Am I on my own?!

Where do I go?!

Am I on my own?!

On my own!
