Blip on a Screen |
| Turn on the light, so it burns in the night |
| We turning down the flay |
| The world is uncertain |
| I’m uncertained by the curtains tonight |
| You will not know but grow, we will not dare |
| We’ll always smile and care and reply with your hair |
| We got to reverse the pattern |
| What’s the worse that could happen? |
| For the first time in my adulthood |
| The worse that could happen |
| Is utterly unthinkable, sinking, unsaid, dread |
| And suddenly I’m worried about the bread under the bed |
| But then all sort of awful shit seem plausible indoors |
| Proportions get walked in to the worse, and for certain |
| You’re growing thumbs, I’m going numb |
| Tucked into your mum looks like it might be quite fun |
| A blip on a screen, you don’t know me |
| I think about you and what you’ll grow to be |
| A blip on a screen, you don’t know me |
| I think about you and what you’ll grow to be |
| Black and white blotches to watch and not get |
| And the flashes of sense along with your body and head |
| It is all as simple as you think when you were little |
| It is all as simple as me sinking a little drink |
| Your growing nails, mine are so nailed |
| I’m drinking your mothers wine for both of us today |
| You don’t know choice but you know my voice |
| You should never have chosen me, I love like a boy |
| The world’s so dark sometimes, the noise of the cars |
| Building a world fulled up of toys and stars |
| A blip on a screen, you don’t know me |
| I think about you and what you’ll grow to be |
| A blip on a screen, you don’t know me |
| I think about you and what you’ll grow to be |
| You’ll dance on every song, foot fall every little move |
| Before you realize that every noise is not music |
| My dad raised these thoughts, he pastes these boards |
| I never knew, I just grew, that’s all you can do |
| But then growing to an adult is just learning the language |
| Of explaining with words what you were as a baby |
| You’ll leisurely learn how to lie and pretend |
| To service your love and rely on your friends |
| This could be fraught, but it’s all I got taught |
| And I don’t wanna make it up as I go along with yours |
| A blip on a screen, you don’t know me |
| I think about you and what you’ll grow to be |
| A blip on a screen, you don’t know me |
| I think about you and what you’ll grow to be |
| A blip on a screen, you don’t know me |
| I think about you and what you’ll grow to be |
| I fix and I plan, but this is just mad |
| I love you |
| You’re only a 100 pixels on a scan |
