Author of Modern Thought by The Mellowells Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So change my name to something more like me
Cuz I don't feel like who I tend to be

[Chorus 1]
And this feels like the longest road I've ever driven on
I've ever driven on
And you're the silent one that never speaks yet made me feel I needed you
That made me feel I needed you

[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And I'm a character in his new book
Cuz I don't care how other people look

[Chorus 1]
And this feels like the longest road I've ever driven on
I've ever driven on
And you're the silent one that never speaks yet made me feel I needed you
That made me feel I needed you

[Verse 3]
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

[Pre-Chorus 3]
So change my name to something more like me
Cuz I don't feel like who I tend to be

[Chorus 1]
And this feels like the longest road I've ever driven on
I've ever driven on
And you're the silent one that never speaks yet made me feel I needed you
The made me feel I needed you
[Chorus 1]
And this feels like the longest road I've ever driven on
I've ever driven on
And you're the silent one that never speaks yet made me feel I needed you
That made me feel I needed you
