It's Not

[Verse 1]

I 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

[Verse 2]

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 on the same old spot

And all I have to do is to press the pedal

But I'm not

No I'm not

[Bridge]

People are tricky you can't afford to show

Anything risky

Anything they don't know

The moment you try

Well, kiss it goodbye

[Verse 3]

So baby kiss me like a drug, like a respirator

And let me fall into the dream of the astronaut

Where I get lost in space that goes on forever

And you make all the rest just an afterthought

And I believe it's you who could make it better

Though it's not

No it's not

No it's not
