keep going round and round on the same old circuit
a wire travels underground to a vacant lot
where something I can't see interrupts the current
and shrinks the picture down to a tiny dot

and from behind the screen it can look so perfect
but it's not
so here I'm sitting in my car at the same old stop light
I keep waiting for a change but I don't know what


so red turns into green turning into yellow
but I'm just frozen here in the same old spot

and all I have to do is to press the pedal
but I'm not

People are tricky you can't afford to show anything risky
anything they don't know
the moment you try - ... kiss it goodbye
so baby kiss me like a drug, like a respirator

and let me fall into the dream of the astronaut

for I'll get lost in space that goes on forever
and you may call the rest just an afterthought

and I'll believe it's you could make it better
though it's not
no it's not
no it's not...
