Cut To Black

Starlight in motion caught in a frame

She lights up the picture time and again

Luminous in dead of night

She's crystalline in black and white

TV light guides me next to her

Behold natural phenomena

In close up from head to toe

Possessed by 'the girl in the video'

And I lose myself again

We cut to black

And I'm on my knees

My breath is loud

My hands are tied

I'm trying hard to find the lies

Flesh is stronger than spirit I cry

Makes my loneliness so magnified

A drop of blood spins on a dime

As I tune in for the very last time

White noise on the flickering screen

Hollywood is burning it's quite a sight to be seen

Ain't got the time to moralise

The revolution is being televised

And I lose myself again

We cut to black

And I'm on my feet

My breath is loud

My hands are untied

And who I am, sanctified
