TV Dream

How I wish I'd called you up just to hear you breathe The sound of serotonin makes it hard for me to sleep I need to ask you questions Like would you want to dance? There's demons in our mind, and they scream when it's too bright We're animals in costume, tonight we're dressed in white I need to get the words out Like poetry ain't dead yet, it ain't dead yet I wanna take you dancin', I wanna paint the street Take my lungs if you need to breathe Take my heart if you need a beat I wanna take you dancin', like on a silver screen Still young, we were born into a TV dream How I wish I'd called your name out But I couldn't see your eyes The audience aren't watchin', 'cause tonight we're in disguise The world don't know her name yet And the world don't know her face She slips away I wanna take you dancin', I wanna paint the street Take my lungs if you need to breathe Take my heart if you need a beat I wanna take you dancin', like on a silver screen Still young, we were born into a TV dream When the world has lost its mind With plastic love, with space and time Will boys and girls still play the same? The news will say we'll all be fine I don't believe what I'm seeing On the TV screen I can't believe what I'm hearing It makes no sense to me Don't need no excuses Like why'd you get dressed like that? If you could take it back, would you take it back? I wanna take you dancin', I wanna paint the street Take my lungs if you need to breathe Take my heart if you need a beat I wanna take you dancin', like on a silver screen Still young, we were born into a TV dream
