Modern Love Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Look at you now, super strung out, what would your mother say?
Some killer queen, making a scene, don't got a price to pay
Hook in my mouth, stringing me out on every word you say
Those other boys, these other girls, don't matter anyway
So quick to jump ship on some flavor of the week shit
So now, I'll take you home tonight if only for the hell of it
[Chorus]
Stacy, please, I'm suffocating
Choking on infatuation
You're obsessed with drugs and dating
Modern love's too complicated (Complicated, complicated, complicated)
[Verse 2]
You're missing the point, nobody lasts after the honeymoon
Why even try giving it back if there's a chancе you'll lose?
Out of the red and into thе blue, see it for what it is
Chasing the high or living the lie, just like your parents did
But I'll take you home tonight
[Chorus]
Stacy, please, I'm suffocating
Choking on infatuation
You're obsessed with drugs and dating
Modern love's too complicated
Round and round and round we go
The carousel don't stop for us so
Bite my lip and spin me faster
Modern love's a beautiful disaster
Look at you now, super strung out, what would your mother say?
Some killer queen, making a scene, don't got a price to pay
Hook in my mouth, stringing me out on every word you say
Those other boys, these other girls, don't matter anyway
So quick to jump ship on some flavor of the week shit
So now, I'll take you home tonight if only for the hell of it
[Chorus]
Stacy, please, I'm suffocating
Choking on infatuation
You're obsessed with drugs and dating
Modern love's too complicated (Complicated, complicated, complicated)
[Verse 2]
You're missing the point, nobody lasts after the honeymoon
Why even try giving it back if there's a chancе you'll lose?
Out of the red and into thе blue, see it for what it is
Chasing the high or living the lie, just like your parents did
But I'll take you home tonight
[Chorus]
Stacy, please, I'm suffocating
Choking on infatuation
You're obsessed with drugs and dating
Modern love's too complicated
Round and round and round we go
The carousel don't stop for us so
Bite my lip and spin me faster
Modern love's a beautiful disaster
[Bridge]
Look at you now, super strung out, what would your mother say?
Some killer queen, making a scene, don't got a price to pay
Hook in my mouth stringing me out on every word you say
Those other boys, these other girls, don't matter anyway
Look at you now, super strung out, what would your mother say? (So quick to jump ship on some)
Some killer queen, making a scene, don't got a price to pay (Flavor of the week shit)
Hook in my mouth stringing me out on every word you say (I'll take you home tonight if only)
Those other boys, these other girls, don't matter anyway (For the hell of it)
[Pre-Chorus]
Stacy, please, we're suffocating
Tired of all the drugs and dating
Turns out it's less devastating
Staying home and masturbating
[Chorus]
Stacy, please, I'm suffocating
Choking on infatuation
So obsessed with drugs and dating
Modern love's too complicated
Round and round and round we go
The carousel don't stop for us so
Bite my lip and spin me faster
Modern love's a beautiful
Modern love's a beautiful
Modern love's a beautiful disaster
Look at you now, super strung out, what would your mother say?
Some killer queen, making a scene, don't got a price to pay
Hook in my mouth stringing me out on every word you say
Those other boys, these other girls, don't matter anyway
Look at you now, super strung out, what would your mother say? (So quick to jump ship on some)
Some killer queen, making a scene, don't got a price to pay (Flavor of the week shit)
Hook in my mouth stringing me out on every word you say (I'll take you home tonight if only)
Those other boys, these other girls, don't matter anyway (For the hell of it)
[Pre-Chorus]
Stacy, please, we're suffocating
Tired of all the drugs and dating
Turns out it's less devastating
Staying home and masturbating
[Chorus]
Stacy, please, I'm suffocating
Choking on infatuation
So obsessed with drugs and dating
Modern love's too complicated
Round and round and round we go
The carousel don't stop for us so
Bite my lip and spin me faster
Modern love's a beautiful
Modern love's a beautiful
Modern love's a beautiful disaster

What did All Time Low say about "Modern Love"?
Genius Answer
Alex Gaskarth:
‘Modern Love’s a beautiful disaster’ are the words of a desperate, love-sick soul and the main character of our newest song ‘Modern Love,’ who is obsessed with the quest for connection in a world that’ll often break your heart. The visual piece that accompanies the single and continues the through-line started with ‘Sleepwalking’ was co-directed by myself and our good friend Lupe Bustos.
