Modern Love Story

A boy, a girl, a love story.
But why did it end in misery?
Taking our chances, getting our thrills
Taking and taking but never getting our fill.

This is what I see.
A modern love story.
This is what I see.
A modern love story.

Love defined on our TV.
Telling us, teaching us what we need.
Are we in love or just so alone,
That we're looking for anyone to hold?

This is what I see.
A modern love story.
This is what I see.
A modern love story.

When the prey is caught, the thrill gone,
So we'll switch partners and move along.
And we won't use our brains because our lust is too strong.
Overlooking the person to whom the body belongs.

This is what I see.
A modern love story.
This is what I see.
A modern love story.
