[Verse 1: Birds of Tokyo] I've been watching you Change by the hour Turning into something new Just to survive I'm terrified I can see confusion forming in your mind I can see you tripping in and out of time [Verse 2: Birds of Tokyo] Your shape is shifting All contorted Cracked and vile In disbelief I close my eyes Long enough So I don't see the shame again Of everything Disconnect me Pull the power Shut me off and cut the wires Deep enough So I don't feel the pain again [Pre-Chorus 1: Birds of Tokyo] I've been watching you When there's no disguise I've been watching you A vision I can't describe It's discoloured [Verse 3: Hayley Mary] I've been watching you Lost in the wire Thinking I was something you Kept in your mind Your idle mind Let me take you with me On a little twist I love it when you're tripping In and out of space [Verse 4: Hayley Mary] If you want to keep pretending
Boys don't cry Just surrender, cry aloud Loud enough so I don't feel The pain again of every man Disconnect me Pull the power Shut me off and cut the wire Or climb across so we can share The shame again [Pre-Chorus 2: Hayley Mary] 'Cos I've been watching you (Livin' in a world) On a razors edge I've been watching you (on the other side) From beyond the lens [Chorus] It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens [Bridge] If god is in the lens Is it faith that he demands we give Can't he see the world we live and breathe [Chorus] Is discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens
