Like a drag of cigarette awakes
The sleeping alcohol in your veins
The persistence of vision can

Make you nauseous again

Seas of images are boiling
Over your pupil and retina
Try to avoid, the troops are coming
I'm reading your mind

You know you can't hide
You know you can't hide
(Just raise your head and let me see what's inside)
You know you can't hide

It's funny how guilt after sex
Grows a blend of love and hate
If you wonder why I can
Explain how to open the gate

Seas of images are boiling
Over your pupil and retina
Try to avoid, the troops are coming
I'm reading your mind

You know you can't hide
You know you can't hide
(Just raise your head and let me see what's inside)
You know you can't hide

I'm a Hollywood golden age star
That you can't fight the look
You're a birdie in a golden cage
A fish that can't escape the hook

Seas of images are boiling
Over your pupil and retina
You can't look away, the troops are coming
I'm reading you now

You know you can't hide
You know you can't hide
(Just raise your head and let me see what's inside)
