lyrics

You will be inside with your old TV
the world you see restricted to 4:3
We used to see an opportunity
in every flake's slow descent to the ground
The children will be quick to tell you there's no two alike
but all that I see is one damnable ocean of white

When you succeed, are you ever happy,
or does it burn like another defeat?
Does it make you see the impossibility
of fulfillment in the general sense?
What good is a mansion if you still just live in your head?
What's the perfect life if you spend it wishing you were dead?

I wish that I had such imperfect vision.
I wish that I saw things the way that you see them,
with truncated truth, so shortly and sweetly
and questions unasked, get answered discretely.

Children will be quick to tell you there's no two alike
but all that I see is one damnable ocean of white
and when they melt in the sun they don't put up a fight
