Lost A Friend

(앨범: Whiplash - 1997)

My TV's staring at me
It says 'go to sleep, go to sleep'
Turns me into a Siamese twin
Where do I start
The TV screen begins
Plugs me into some holy geek
His point in life is incomplete
My TV is telling me that only money will make me happy

Hold the course and then sail
Hold the course and then sail

Across the satellite beams
Across the oceans and seas
To the lighthouse I could be
I see some soldiers with guns
And they are killing for fun
They are killing to entertain me

Caught between that world and this
I'd sell my soul for a Bond girl's kiss
Caught between that world and this
I'd sell my soul for a state of bliss
My TV's telling me that all our money goes into the military

Hold the course and then sail
Hold the course and then sail

Across the satellite beams
Across the oceans or seas
to the lighthouse I could be
I see some soldiers with guns
And they are killing for fun
They were dying to entertain me

And then I heard your name
As the spaceman came
He came right through my screen
And then his lifeline broke
He began to choke
Jump cut to another scene
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
We lost a friend to the sea
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
We lost a friend to the sea
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
We lost a friend to the sea
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
