lyrics
My headache lives in your basement,
Painting x's on the faces,
In the magazines that come for free,
On the pages that free the streets
Black and white photo, red underline,
Images folding in section five,
This waiting room's a little too bright,
For my eyes that try to hide,
On the table electric holiday,
All the faces that we'll never see,
Black light one: conversation,
We'll take five for indignation,
My errant mind has left the building,
And our white lies are quickly turning black
Black and white photo, read all the time,
Maybe it'll all unfold, and we'll be safe tonight
Black light one: conversation,
We'll take five for indignation,
In this waiting room a little too bright,
For my eyes that try to hide,
On the table electric holiday,
All the pages that free the streets
When you take mine, I would change forever,
And our white lies are quickly turning
black, black, black.
