Hello, my name is Your TV
We've been together so long
So many memories
We solved so many problemsSituated comedies
I fed you ads and movie stars
And you always fell asleep
In my color bars but there's thisWorld outside
Where the lighting's off
Scenes last too long
And you lose the plotAll the girls, they lie
And they break your heart
And nothing's done
When the streets go darkHere, see California
Where pretty people dream
And the good guy gets the girl
By the sunny seaAnd when they'd yell upstairs
You'd cry, "Little boy inside their lies"
In the dark, I'd watch your eyes
And I know the way they laughThe jackals feast behind your back
Here you hide but still they stab
In the dark, I feel you die in thatWorld outside
Where the lighting's off
Scenes last too long
And you lose the plotAll the girls, they lie
And they break your heart
And nothing's done
When the streets go darkHere, see California
Where pretty people dreamNow see that icy vacant lot
Where they made your nose bleed
The flannel spread, the heater onThe world is dead, the sun is gone
Here take my hand, I'll take you home
You'll never have to be aloneThe picture's warping slowly
The scrolling seems unending
The snowy edges blurring
The bars between us bendingFeel you start to breathe
You are alive inside of me
Forever tan and strong and loved
You'll never bleed againIn dreamy California scenes
Where bad guys meet their destiny
And the good guy gets the girl
By the sunny sea
