Unattached, heart was racing
on a one-way track
I got lost in the feeling and felt nothing at all
Made my part
won't get crazy over one-night stars
Just the time that we live in, the writing's on the wall

So here we go again
A night to feel alone
Guess it's gonna be a modern tragedy
And I'm supposed to start again
A face, a name, a ghost
I guess it's gonna be a modern tragedy
And I'm supposed to start again

Love to keep options open
while I found my piece
But the grass wasn't greener (Mm)
and you're still on your own
(You're still on your own), mm
Played my part
won't get crazy over one night stars
Just the time we're living (Oh)
the writing's on the wall (Writing's on the wall)

So here we go again
A night to feel alone
Guess it's gonna be (Guess it's gonna be) a modern tragedy
And I'm supposed to start again
A face, a name, a ghost
I guess it's gonna be (Guess it's gonna be) a modern tragedy
And I'm supposed to start again

A modern tragedy
A night to feel alone
Guess it's gonna be (Guess it's gonna be) a modern tragedy
And I'm supposed to start again
