Televised

In this endless thirst we go from first to worst and get
Lost in the mud and fall down with a thud at this point
We feel “why not sign the deal” and give up privacy and
Give up what is me

And when it’s not enough
And you can’t fill your cup-this boring humdrum
Life with an average looking wife
The shiny things we love beneath the flashing bulbs
They have their steely hold but always leave you cold
Thanks for sharing that with us

Your divorce has been televised
Your intercourse has been televised
You’re ratings gold
You have been sold
Your life isn’t yours see dotted line
To be sure when you’re televised
Par for the course you will be despised-the cannon fodder of checkout lines
This life isn’t real you knew the deal

And when the novelty has worn off all its sheen
And when the crowd’s moved on and you’re on your way down
So you think you’ll adjust to a life without remorse
You paid a price to find attention spans are short

Thanks for sharing that with us

Every vice has been televised your weeping eyes
They’ve been televised

Where have they gone?
And when will they wonder where you’ve gone?
Where are they now? Remember them?
Where have they gone? Where will you be?

Re-sign your deal can’t change your mind
