lyrics

Blacklight (A-Boy Spork)

Traveling at break-neck speed
Like falling sideways arms extended
Breathing breaths of oxygen
The blood pumps heartbeats
Going gone

Television window soaring
Over fields of pixilation
Dropping you back in your skull
The landings crash your brain's an A-bomb

Faces on the wall stuck with thumb tacks
Are planning for the next sneak attack
Mad dog devil god's night light
Everything breaks down in shades of black and white

Take another breath like its your last one
Trapped inside your own disguise
Take another step into oblivion
That dark electric eye

Blinded by 20/20 second sight!
Living in a world made of blacklight
Blinded out of mind out of sight
Living in a world made of blacklight
Hear the scenes and see the sounds
And watch the world go spinning down
And turn yourself all inside out
And round and round and round
Round and round and round...

To see the place is spinning like a drunk drink splash
Makes you wanna think about your future's past
Makes you wanna grope the remote
Hit stop rewind, hit forward fast

If time is an illusion then I guess that makes
Space a two-bit parlor trick, think fast!
If life is but a dream then row your
Boat on gently down the stream

Confusion turns to panic turns to crazy
I would run if I wasn't so lazy
I would scream if I had a little voice left
Cover my ears if I wasn't so dumb and deaf

Take another breath like its your last one
Trapped inside your own disguise
Take another step into oblivion
That dark electric eye

Blinded by 20/20 second sight!
Living in a world made of blacklight
Blinded out of mind out of sight
Living in a world made of blacklight
Hear the scenes and see the sounds
And watch the world go spinning down
And turn yourself all inside out
And round and round and round
Round and round and round...

Driving an erase car...
Feeling an erase car...
Fueling an erase car...
Feeding an erase car...

Don't you know what to feel?
Don't you know what to do?
Well, no!
'Cause all you do is don't!
'Cause all you do is...

I can see my eyes!
(my ears are so loud and
my tongue tastes terrible
and my nose smells
and my skin is touching skin again)

I can see my eyes!
I can see my eyes!
