I really want to know what you had in store
I couldn't really tell, perhaps it's just as well
I came here with a dream and I just had to see
If my dream would soar, I knocked on every doorHis whole life was written, written there inside
The new weekly bible
His modern TV guide
Every night he stares back at the screen, yeahA man only sees what he wants to see when he's in his mind
Where he is that he wants to be
Living in a world where he's safe from reality
Won't you take a chance on this night and follow me?
Won't you follow me?
Won't you follow me?Don't need no super heroes
Don't need no movie stars
Don't need no politicians
In big black shiny cars
Don't need no preacher
Whose church is my TVA man only sees what he wants to see when he's in his mind
Where he is that he wants to be
Living in a world where he's safe from reality
Won't you take a chance on this night and follow me?
Won't you follow me?
Won't you follow me?Once was a broken hero
The kind that we all know
The kind that hides inside us
For we never show
The kind we say that could never be meHis whole life was written, written there inside
The new weekly bible
His modern TV guide
Stare back at the screen, yeah, yeah
A man only sees want he wants to see
