"TV" lyrics

"TV"

Superficiality's
Affecting my morality
I'm always chasing veins so I could
Gain some immortality
Live on through generations
But the realisation's always
"It won't happen to boys like me"

So I lie awake, but in my head I dream
And so reality, it's just a front to me
I dream of having things that I'll never need
And so I turn my telly on
And then I dive into my screen
I'm singing

TV, won't you morph me
Into the person that I dreamed I'd be
When I was younger
When I was younger
TV, won't you morph me
Into the person that I dreamed I'd be
When I was younger
When I was younger

[?]
When the world around thinks Kardashian-ly
And oh they're everything that I'll never be
[?]
I just wish that it was me

And so I lie awake, but in my head I dream
And so reality, it's just a front to me
I dream of having things that I'll never need
And so I turn my telly on
And then I dive into my screen
I'm singing

TV, won't you morph me
Into the person that I dreamed I'd be
When I was younger
When I was younger
TV, won't you morph me
Into the person that I dreamed I'd be
When I was younger
When I was younger

My signal goes sporadic
And my head just turns to static
And I'll push and then I'll panic my way
Onto the newer scene
But the signal's gone on my TV
So I'm just searching frantically
[?]
To lose our self-identity
Through faces of celebrities
All painted to our magazines
And on the television screens

TV, won't you morph me
Into the person that I dreamed I'd be
When I was younger
When I was younger
TV, won't you morph me
Into the person that I dreamed I'd be
When I was younger
When I was younger
