My Human Interactions

(album: Dead Sea Scrolls - 2009)

As I write this I'm on camera
An extra in some background
Resembling a type which I do not
The scene is a commercial
The product has no function
Don't bother telling the crew
'Cause who has time
When we're losing light

If I conjured this as a fiction
I'd be scared I'd gone too far
But tonight I am not working on my
Human interactions any more

The camera man is balding
And the temperature is scalding
Because the lights that
Light the night are too bright
See the pole beside the actor
I'm the one behind it
The talent is engaged

If I contemplated the message
I would have never signed the form,
But tonight I am not working on my
Human interactions any more.

If I thought that you could see me
I'd be too anxious to perform
But tonight I am not working on my
Human interactions any more

Pray to the god that you don't quite believe in
To bless this fleeting moment
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
