Glass Eye

(album: The Longer Now - 2015)

What kind of life is this?
Just pull me out

Head down
Eyes dull
White glow
You've got a world at your fingertips
That you'll never know
View life through a window
The constant stimulus
And the novelty is all we know
Though it seems self-evident
We can't seem to resist
We just give into it
It's too damn convenient

What kind of life is this?
Just flashing before my eyes
Complacency has a new disguise

Keep It coming
We need more intake
More excuses to escape
Don't wanna think about the ugly truth
Don't wanna think about our tainted youth
Don't wanna think about it
Don't wanna think
I gotta find the strength to pull away
But I keep getting dragged right back in
Pull me in again
Always all this glass between us

What kind of life is this?
Just flashing before my eyes
Complacency has a new disguise
Always all this glass between us
