Television

I am a channel, channels in my body
Signals in my fingertips, static in my eyes
My mind's full of white noise and it's screaming
Like the sirens, like the ambulance

I feel like a television, watching but they never listen
Always doing what I'm told, under their remote control
I don't trust my television, you never try to see my vision
Static shouts into the night, sent to me by satellite

I make friends with the sofa
The signal from far away, closes its eyes
The man in my TV, he is lost in my mind room
I can't see where he's going, he is gone, he is gone

I feel like a television, watching but they never listen
Always doing what I'm told, under their remote control
I don't trust my television, you never try to see my vision
Static shouts into the night, sent to me by satellite

I feel like a television, put you down there's no decision
They don't know what lies ahead, screen slowly fills with red
And I don't trust my television, weighed down by such precision
All the secrets I have given, tell me your hiding position

Television, television, how can I ever be forgiven?
Pieces smash against the wall, they cover it on channel four
Kill the TV, Kill the TV, Kill the TV, Kill the TV, Kill the TV Kill the TV
Kill the television
Kill the TV, Kill the TV, Kill the TV, Kill the TV, Kill the TV Kill the TV
Kill the television

I feel like a television, cries for help lost in transmission
You'll do whatever you're told, we all do whatever we're told
And I don't trust my television, no one tries to see your vision
Watching our empire fall, my brain is sliding down the wall
