Television Dream

Wake up alone and I lack the conviction To go out and face the world on my own The voice in my head is trying to tell me That today would be better spent curled up in a ball Just give me another hour of sleep I'm tired and I just wanna lay around on my own I don't want the hassle I don't wanna hurry I just wanna hang around the house on my own Why do I feel like my life is ending Why do I feel that my life isn't mine Why do I need these vain distractions I think it's time to get on with my life I have a set of clothes that no-one has seen And I can lay around the house and eat what I want I'm so disaffected and misdirected I'm the king of couch and I wield a remote The TV is on and it holds me so close And I feel like I'm living the lives on the screen And them I am back and I land on the ground And I am suddenly ripped from this cathode ray dream Why do I feel like my life is ending Why do I feel that my life isn't mine Why do i need these vain distractions I think it's time to get on with my life
