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

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
I've been

Don't get offended
If I seem absent minded
Just keep telling me facts
And keep making me smile, oh
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'll be yours

I'll pay for you
Anytime
I'll pay for you
Anytime

And you told me you wanted
to eat up my sadness
Well, jump on, enjoy,
you can gorge away
And 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

This modern love
breaks me
This modern love
wastes me

Do you wanna come over and kill me some time?
Do you wanna come over and kill me some time?
Do you wanna come over and kill me some time?

Throw your arms around me
