Have you ever had TV static in your brain That buzz that sounds like a thousand pieces of paper being crumpled into ***** And you wish you could just flush it down the drain Or at least shove it into the tiniest box and then move it against the walls But the only way to get rid of static is to change the channel And we don't have a remote with a guide to our mind There is no button to delete or hit cancel And there's no way to run when it's on the inside You could brave the noise and the web of glitching grey Or you could simply turn the TV off, and throw it away If there is no solution but to live with it or die I wonder what we'll do Can you see the static in my eyes?

TV Static
Have you ever had TV static in your brain That buzz that sounds like a thousand pieces of paper being crumpled into ***** And you wish you could just flush it down the drain Or at least shove it into the tiniest box and then move it against the walls But the only way to get rid of static is to change the channel And we don't have a remote with a guide to our mind There is no button to delete or hit cancel And there's no way to run when it's on the inside You could brave the noise and the web of glitching grey Or you could simply turn the TV off, and throw it away If there is no solution but to live with it or die I wonder what we'll do Can you see the static in my eyes?
