Author Of Modern Thought

I was struck with such a chill at your
Sight, all the warmth went to my hands
You're my favorite person I could
Swear that I'd live life with you again
Watching my friends date their best friends warms me up inside
Watching friends as they progress, writing songs that make you cry
So change my name to something more like me
'Cause I don't feel like who I tend to be

And this feels like the longest road I've ever driven on
I've ever driven on
You're the silent one that never speaks yet made me feel I needed you
That made me feel I needed you

Who's this man, what's his name
Where's he been, how'd he sacrifice his will?
What's his drive, why's he even alive?
He's an author of modern thought
And I'm a character in his new book
'Cause I don't care how other people look

And this feels like the longest road I've ever driven on
I've ever driven on
You're the silent one that never speaks yet made me feel I needed you
That made me feel I needed you

Make up your mind, do I deserve what is in store?
Who calls my name, who do I blame, for all this change?
How will I feel when I become sturdy and comfortable?
I want to be thankful enough that I exist
So change my name to something more like me
'Cause I don't feel like who I tend to be

And this feels like the longest road I've ever driven on
You're the silent one that never speaks yet made me feel I needed you
And this feels like the longest road I've ever driven on
You're the silent one that never speaks yet made me feel I needed you
