Bloc Party - This Modern Love

To be lost in the forest To be cut adrift You've been trying to reach me You bought me a book To be lost in the forest To be cut adrift I've been paid I've been paid Don't get offended If I seem absent minded Just keep telling me facts And keep making me smile 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 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 never known what's good for me 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 Do you wanna come over and kill some time? Tell me facts, tell me facts, tell me facts Tell me facts Throw your arms around me
