Album: TV Highway to the Stars

Foot off the brake, decided to take the TV highway to the stars
Flicker and fade to shiny cascade of pixel painting spark by spark
Rewind, replay all the scenes in proper time
A cryptic list of borrowed thoughts refined by bouncing them off a satellite
Transmission signal fine
Tube to my face to quicken the pace of static charges to my heart
I try to get in, to fit all my skin beside the wires and plastic parts
Rewind, replay all the scenes in proper time
A cryptic list of borrowed thoughts refined by bouncing them off a satellite
Transmission signal fine
Bouncing back and forth between an unrelenting pair of lines
Episodic feelings much too short to tell if they were mine
Agitated by the repetition — show me one more time
When what I want to see is kept from me by censoring the prime time waves
Cut it out! It won’t hurt. I promise I know
All about your problems, and if you would just
Let it out like I did, then you would see we’re
Happy now. The freedom — it comes from crossing the line.
That was the day, decided to pave a TV highway to the stars
A beautiful thing, but hurts all the same — TV highway to the stars
Rewind, replay all the scenes in proper time
A cryptic list of borrowed thoughts refined by bouncing them off a satellite
Transmission signal fine
A television tube replaced my heart, my heart
A television tube replaced my heart with all its technicolor
Television imagery of you and me behind the scenes
Just cut it out! It won’t hurt. I promise I know
All about your problems, and if you would just
Let it out like I did, then you would see we’re
Happy now. The freedom will come if you’ll just
Cut it out
