lyrics

Isolation beats the sound on the street,
Of teens screaming through the silence of prime time,
Lock your windows,
And block out the feeling,
Of irritation/missing out on the real thing.
Mass seduction blooms a thousand repeats,
Every hour just looping the last,
But Walter White still lights up the screens,
Shining on as the man of your dreams.

Television,
You’re on my mind,
Mute the truth,
Just show me a good time.
Television,
You’re all I need,
Turn off and I’ll forget how to breathe.

Invitations falling of the fridge door,
Same excuse but I don’t mean offence.
When’s your wedding,
Was it really last week?
I was busy watching reruns on repeat.

Television,
You’re on my mind,
Mute the truth,
Just show me a good time.
Television,
You’re all I need,
Turn off and I’ll forget how to breathe.

I know you believe,
I see the world through L.E.Ds,
But don’t threaten me,
You’ll turn it off coz I’ll forget how to breathe.

Television,
You’re on my mind,
Mute the truth,
Just show me a good time.
Television,
You’re all I need,
Turn off and I’ll forget how to breathe.
