Lyrics Teletrips - Ice Choir

Teletrips

You were a shapeshifting terror
Chasing time 'round the talking table
Through plastic walls the abstract world
Coasting on high as the royal curious one
As if it could be more obscene
You willed yourself inside the screen
History, fantasy, falling around the child
Glorious lunacy, kaleidoscopic cries
Misery, sympathy;
tarry or stand aside
Televised ecstasy, color across our eyes
You were a strange interference
Twisting up frowns as the morals crumbled
They switched the dials to slow you down
Youth’s prism dashed, you recalled reality’s wall
And grew up fast, a libertine
Some harmless trysts, no lesson gleaned
History, fantasy, falling around the child
Glorious lunacy, kaleidoscopic cries
Misery, sympathy;
tarry or stand aside
Televised ecstasy, color across our eyes
