Lobotomy of Love

Middle aged man what's keeping you awake?
Your life is comfortable make no mistake
Your wife is there but to you she fades
You chose to let her go but the ring it stays

And every day, its food for two and a screen on your eyes
A life like this is a death in disguise

A lobotomy of love, in a beautiful house
Now there's silence in the halls
But all the screens shine out
Don't waste another day
In this loveless affair
You can find it all again

So play the songs you love
And sing them to the sky and to every passer by
A planet full of beauty, a planet full of life
We hide in concrete boxes shading out the light
The love you had is fading, fading with the sun
We use the screen to numb our thoughts and then they come back
The feedback loop, it holds you in place
To your younger self, you're a sad but common case

A lobotomy of love, in a beautiful house
Now there's silence in the halls
But all the screens shine out
Don't waste another day
In this loveless affair
You can find it all again

The love you had is fading, fading with the sun
We use the screen to numb our thoughts and then they come
You can find it again
It's time to wake up
And turn that screen to black
