Private Lives

(album: Quantum Physical 3 - 2016)

Ooh, private lives, ooh
We only frame the pictures we want the world to see
We hide our true desires, unconsciously, mmm
And we pretend that

Nobody's watching, nobody knows what's really going on
Except for the government, tabs on your internet and wires on your phone
Hidden inside of Alpha walls
For only your eyes to see
Is anything secret anymore?
Is anything just for me?

Private lives (Deep inside, ooh)
Private lives (Deep inside)
It's only for your eyes

You won't let no one see your freaky side, free your mind
And just put down your vibe, yeah
No one will ever know what we never show
Outside our private lives, oh

Nobody's watching, nobody knows what's really going on
Except for the government, tabs on your internet and wires on your phone
Hidden inside of Alpha walls
For only your eyes to see
Is anything secret anymore?
Is anything just for me?

Private lives (Deep inside, ooh, hey hey)
Private lives (Deep inside)
It's only for your eyes

(Deep inside, ah
Deep, deep, deep inside, ah)
You are free to do what you like
That is your right
And for you to be private
Unless we see fit to call it illicit
For how can we stop the global assailants
Without a global surveillance
There's always somebody responsible, someone who's culpable
Someone to blame for your broken dreams
We're just trying to save you
From those of a dark complexion, from averse in need of correction
From the lady in the hijab who's stealing your job
From the ones who won't comply, though we don't mean to pry
Inside, your private lives

Private lives (Deep inside, ooh)
Private lives (Deep inside)
It's only for your eyes (Hey, it's just for you)
Private lives (Deep inside, ooh, it's only for your eyes)
Private lives (Deep inside)
It's only for your eyes (It's only for your eyes)
Ooh (Deep inside)
It's only for your eyes
