lyrics

Why do I make all these movements?
They flash and splinter
They don't make sense
They grind and divide
They shift and sing
They don't produce
Fertile offspring

Where do I put my hands and feet?
You look at me, I freeze like fate
Why are we here?
Where did we go?
When did we leave?
Is it too late?

It's over
Going on
Making conversation

The image center
A worn-out scene
Now that my soul
Is on TV
Born in this body
I'm on the spot
Just like a picture
I stop

It's over
Going on
Making conversation
