lyrics

THIS LIFE AND THE SCENES THAT WE CRINGE TO,
PEOPLE IN CHARGE MAKE IT WORSE.
WALK ON YOU, PRESS US TO THINK WE ENJOY THIS,
WE’RE GOING TO IGNITE THIS HERE PLACE.

TELEVISION, VIDEO SCREEN,
ABSORBS THE MIND, PREYS ON YOU,
UNTIL YOU'RE DOWN ON THE GROUND
WITH YOUR FRIENDS, JUST A CHANCE.

AWAY FROM THIS LIFE THAT WILL BLEED YOU,
AWAY FROM THIS LAND THAT DIVIDES.
OH, WE LA, LA, LA, LA, LAUGH. OH OH
OH, WE LA, LA, LA, LA, LAUGH. OH OH

TELEVISION, VIDEO SCREEN,
ABSORBS THE MIND, PREYS ON YOU,
UNTIL YOU'RE DOWN ON THE GROUND
WITH YOUR FRIENDS, JUST A CHANCE.


AWAY FROM THIS LIFE THAT WILL BLEED YOU,
AWAY FROM THIS LIFE THAT DIVIDES.
OH, WE LA, LA, LA, LA, LAUGH. OH OH
OH, WE LA, LA, LA, LA, LAUGH. OH OH

IMAGINE OUR TIME WITH ANOTHER, DIVINE WINE.
DANCING WITH JOY ALL THE WAY.
THEY CAN'T SEE THAT I'M NONE EXISTANT TO THEIR VIEW,
AS THEY WILT THEY REPLACE SAME AGAIN.

TELEVISION, VIDEO SCREEN,
ABSORBS THE MIND, PREYS ON YOU,
UNTIL YOU'RE DOWN ON THE GROUND
WITH YOUR FRIENDS, JUST A CHANCE.

AWAY FROM THIS LIFE THAT WILL BLEED YOU,
AWAY FROM THIS LIFE THAT DIVIDES.
OH, WE LA, LA, LA, LA, LAUGH. OH OH
OH, WE LA, LA, LA, LA, LAUGH. OH OH
OH, WE LA, LA, LA, LA, LAUGH. OH OH
OH, WE LA, LA, LA, LA, LAUGH. OH OH
WE LA, LA, LA, LA, LAUGH.
