color bars

Well I have seen your face among the flashing lights
Would you believe me if I told you what I know?
I've seen outside the lens of this film camera
But I think maybe you'll think I'm fucking crazy

I know that we have been here in another life
I know that my mind's not lost in the fog
These posters on the wall look so familiar
It's too cold to leave here but I know it'll disappear

The TV only plays these static channels
There's too many wires to unplug it from the walls
You've torn apart this tape that just plays backwards
Never-ending

The carpet floor is so damn soft and comfortable
What's the point of sleeping in a bed?
In the basement of a house with open windows
Nothing's locked up

I left that hall I once thought inaccessible
We'll watch old films from a different point of view
The storm outside builds up to a climax
A lightning bolt

Color bars are beaming through the blacks of your eyes
And in the hum of electricity my heart will hear a melody
We've been here before in some distant memory
I don't want to wake up from this dream

I'm dreaming in the heart of the storm
And when the power grid goes out our love will keep each other warm
We've been here before in some distant memory
I don't want to wake up from this dream

And what is this to you
If not a chance to prove your worth?
We were not all born
To remain on planet earth

And what is this to you
If not a chance to prove your worth?
We were not all born
To remain on planet earth

I know that we have been here in another life
I know that my mind's not lost in the fog
You've torn apart this tape that just plays backwards
Never-ending

Color bars are beaming through the blacks of your eyes
And in the hum of electricity my heart will hear a melody
We've been here before in some distant memory
I don't want to wake up from this dream

I'm dreaming in the heart of the storm
And when the power grid goes out our love will keep each other warm
We've been here before in some distant memory
I don't want to wake up
