|
They watching you they're watching me |
|
Through mushroom clouds they dream |
|
They've got this technology |
|
For building anything |
|
|
|
But I'm one with you tonight |
|
Running through amber screens |
|
Tell me what you believe |
|
And everything you've seen |
|
|
|
She said |
|
|
|
I don't know you |
|
I don't understand |
|
How we got this way |
|
And all that I can recall |
|
Is a line of a song |
|
That I heard that day |
|
|
|
When video killed the radio star |
|
I was there |
|
Counting the tears in my eyes |
|
Cuz nothing left forgotten |
|
Can ever be just |
|
What we remember it was like |
|
Through the static |
|
I still hear you |
|
Singing to the beat pulsing in my mind |
|
But maybe I'm just singing along |
|
And you're already gone |
|
|
|
Maybe you're not really here |
|
Maybe I'm imagining |
|
A million memories |
|
In a computer fantasy |
|
|
|
I can't help you |
|
I don't understand |
|
How we went this far |
|
All I can recall |
|
Is the look in her eyes |
|
The day it all fell apart |
|
|
|
When video killed the radio star |
|
I was there |
|
Counting the years of my life |
|
And then I realized |
|
I wouldn't be born |
|
Until a year after she had died |
|
In this silence |
|
I still need you |
|
Cuz you stop the ringing here in my mind |
|
But maybe I'm pulling thin air |
|
And you were never there |
|
|
|
See now it's all begun |
|
I count zeros and ones |
|
But all that's in between |
|
Is where the secret lies |
|
|
|
It's where you're still with me |
|
Still watching the skies |
|
Still fighting in this dream |
|
They pulled over our eyes |
