Julian Casablancas - The Modern Age lyrics

[Verse 1] Up on a hill, here's where we begin This little story, a long time ago Start to pretend, stop pretending It seems this game is simply never-ending [Pre-Chorus] Oh in the sun shine having fun, it's in my blood I just can't help it Don't want you here right now, let me go Let me go-go-go-go-go-go-go-go [Chorus] Leaving just in time Stay there for a while Rolling in the ocean Trying to catch her eye Work hard and say it's easy Do it just to please me Tomorrow will be different So I'll pretend I'm leaving [Verse 2] I feel so different now, we trained at A-V-A I wish you hadn't stayed My vision's clearer now But I'm unafraid Flyin' overseas, no time to feel the breeze I took too many varieties [Pre-Chorus + Chorus]
