Modern Drift

I can keep my head in sight

When the modern drift is all I have.



You can pull my head aside,

But the modern drift is all I have.



When the moment dies

And I come to you

With a broken lie

That I made for you



Will I let you see you're not

With the living ghosts?

Will they catch your sight

Or the back of you?



I can keep my head in sight

When the modern drift is all I have.



You can pull my head aside,

But the modern drift is all I have.



We could be so strong

But we're all afraid.

They will play your hands

Like a puppeteer.



And the dreams aren't true

But we know it—we know that tune

That the angel sang to the hollow death:



"I can keep my head in sight

When the modern drift is all I have.



"You can pull my head aside,

But the modern drift is all I have.



"It's all I have".
