Modern Guilt Lyrics

Cover art for Modern Guilt lyrics by Beck

i think it's about the guilt that society puts onto us. we don't notice it but from all sides we here what we should and shouldn't do. i hink the song is also about being lost and finding the direction of your life and all the "help" from the outside world is that smoking is bad andliving healthy. but still it doesn't help. we just feel like a pawn in a chess game.
