He bought and sold a video
|
Made a fortunein between
|
A thousand well-known faces
|
Passed across that stupid screen
|
He turned them down
|
He never thought they had so much to say
|
He watched those faces come and go
|
Up close
|
He saw the strain
|
And he watches it all
|
Yes he watches it all
|
|
Someone broke into his house last night
|
It's strange they didn't take a thing
|
Someone broke into his house last night
|
But still it feels like they took everything
|
Home is where the head is
|
Home is where the demons all come out to play
|
Home is where you hide yourself at night
|
And home is where you feel safe
|
And still he watches it all
|
He watches it all
|
And it's small
|
It all seems small
|
|
Did you read it in the Sunday paper?
|
The headline called him the 'Sailors Deacon'
|
He fell in love with the lighthouse keeper
|
Spends his time bringing home the beacon
|
Huh
|
He bought and sold a video
|
Made a fortune in between
|
