lyrics

So I got home, turned on the TV
and some people with their teeth bleached
were screaming at me, "Give us pictures of trees!
Crop and digitally reassemble the leaves!
Give it depth and meaning!" Gee, isn't life so pretty?
Well, I don't know what to say,
do you think this is okay?
Take a look at your room,
do you like what you see?

So I stepped out
under the incandescent lighting of the street.
There were people walking alone
with eyes that wave more than meet.
Crossing, rolling around, but never strain
to relieve this social atrophy
from living all of our lives on a screen.
I don't know what to say,
but do you think this is okay?
Take a look at your room,
do you like what you see?

Cause I don't like what I see.

I just keep screaming at the ceilings,
"My god, what is this feeling
that keeps me jerked around in circles,
so paranoid & nervous.
Like I'm swerving in reverse
at a hearse, even worse,
can't tell if I feel hurt
or if it's just something
I think that I'm supposed to be."
So do you like what you see?
