Sharon Van Etten - Idiot Box Lyrics

Sharon Van Etten Lyrics

"Idiot Box"

Everyone on the idiot box
Come on outside, let me hear those thoughts
Call me out with the blue light eyes
Nervous, tired, desensitized
Let it go
Let's go!

All that skin against the glass
All that skin against the glass
All these things we think we lack
All this time we can't get back

All of us on the idiot box
Come on outside, let me hear those thoughts
Call me out when you see the signs
Disconnect, unrecognized
Let me know
Let's go!

All that skin against the glass
All that skin against the glass
All these things we think we lack
All this time we can't get back

All that skin against the glass
All that skin against the glass
All these things we think we lack
All this time we can't get back

Ooh, when you find it's just a dream
Always gets to me, always gets to me
Ooh, when you find it's just a dream
Always gets to me, always gets to me
Always gets to me, always gets to me
Always gets to me, always gets to me
Always gets to me, always gets to me
Always gets to me, always gets to me

Everyone on the idiot box
Come on outside, let me hear those thoughts
Everyone on the idiot box
Come on outside, let me hear those thoughts
Everyone on the idiot box
Come on outside, let me hear those thoughts
Everyone on the idiot box
Call me outside, let me hear your thoughts
