Modern world

I'm a fugitive son
in the era of dissent
a hostage of the soul
on a strike to pay a rent
the last of the rebels
without a common ground
I'm gonna light a fire
into the underground.

I don't want to live
in the modern world

I am a nation
without bureaucratic ties
deny the allegation as it's written.

I want to take a ride
to the great divide
beyond the "up to date"
And the neo-gentrified
the high definition
for the low resident
where the valve of your mind
is not held in contempt
I can hear the sound of
a beating heart
that bleeds beyond a system
that's falling apart
with money to burn
on a minimun wage
I don't give a shit
about the modern age.

I don't want to live
in the modern world
mass hysteria.
