J. Rice and Joshua Rice - Modern Loneliness

Verse 1
I've been thinkin' 'bout my father lately
The person that he made me
The person I've become
And I've been trying to fill all of this empty
But I am still so empty
and I could use some love

Pre-Chorus
And I've been trying to find a reason to get up
Been trying to find a reason for this stuff
In my bedroom and my closet
The baggage in my heart is still so dark

Chorus
Modern loneliness
We're never alone, but always depressed, yeah
Love my friends to death
But I never call and I never text, yeah
La-di-da-di-da
Yeah, you get what you give and you give what you get, so
Modern loneliness
We love to get high, but we don't know how to come down

Verse 2
If I could break my DNA to pieces
Rid of all my demons
If I could cleanse my soul
Then I could fill the world with all my problems
I know that wouldn't solve them
and I'd be left alone

Pre-Chorus
And I've been trying to find a reason to get up
I'm trying to find a reason for this stuff
In my bedroom and my closet
The baggage in my heart is still so dark

Chorus
Modern loneliness
We're never alone, but always depressed, yeah
Love my friends to death
But I never call and I never text 'em
La-di-da-di-da
you get what you give and you give what you get, so
Modern loneliness
We love to get high, but we don't know how to come down

Post-Chorus
Down, down, down, down, down
We don't know how to come down
Down, down, down, down, down
We don't know how to come down
Down, down, down, down, down
We don't know how to come down
Down, down, down, down

Chorus
Modern loneliness
We're never alone, but always depressed, yeah
I Love my friends to death
But I never call and I never text 'em
La-di-da-di-da
Yeah, you get what you give and you give what you get, so
Modern loneliness
We love to get high, but we don't know how to come down
