I feel uptight
when I walk in the city
I feel so cold
when I`m at home
Feels like everything`s
starting to hit me
I lost my bearings
ten minutes ago
Modern guilt
I`m stranded with nothing
Modern guilt
I`m under lock and key
Misapprehension
Is turning into convention
Don`t know what I`ve done
but I feel ashamed
Standing outside
the glass on the sidewalk
These people talk about
impossible things
And I`m falling out
of the conversation
And I`m a pawn piece
in a human shield
Modern guilt is all
in our hands
Modern guilt
won`t get me to bed
Say what you will
Smoke your last cigarette
Don`t know what
I`ve done but I feel afraid
