We Interrupt This Commercial To Bring You Another Commercial
The light is a game that changed our name
Made our lives this simple stain
Your life is pain I cannot sustain
Born to entertain, drown in the rain
All we do is fight
For what we think is right
Too bored to be suicidal
So denial takes a life
The screen is awake, make no mistake
Drove our minds from our veins
TV mind is all of mankind
Faces cracked and filled with lines
The light is game that changed our name
Made our lives this simple stain
Quietly, the TV bleeds
Bedroom violence all we see
Wish you goodbye, never ask why
We never smile and we never cry
Your life is pain I cannot sustain
Born to entertain, drown in the rain
All we do is fight
For what we think is right
Too bored to be suicidal
So denial takes a life
Our arms are entwined, eyes start to grind
Dilate and understand it lives inside
Volume’s too loud, shut your mouth
Killing time and never doubt
The light is a game that changed our name
Made our lives this simple stain
All we do is fight
For what we think is right
Too bored to be suicidal
So denial takes a life
IV-TV
It’s a life-time guarantee
To a tolerable degree
Why couldn’t you just learn to read?
All we do is fight
For what we think is right
Too bored to be suicidal
So denial takes a life
All we do is die
For what we think is right
Too bored to be suicidal
So denial takes my life
