Everything Looks Beautiful on Video

I don't want you to touch me.
Don't try to help you'll only make it worse.
Don't tell me it will be ok.
Nothing's gonna be ok.
And anyway, it doesn't matter.
I'm gonna turn my TV on.

'Cause everything looks beautiful on video

No point in talking now, I'm gone.
I have escaped by cathode ray.
My eyes don't see the world at all.
My ears don't hear the things you say.
I wanna turn to light.
I know that is where I belong.

Electrifying the airwaves, I'm on video.

And if you need me, switch me on.
I'm always right behind the screen.
I'm beautiful forever now.
I'm living thirty minute dreams.

And if you want me, switch me on.
I'm living right beyond the screen,
The only place I feel at home.
I am your thirty minute dreams.

Oh, you can never touch me.
Don't even hope you'll only want too much.
I know that you can't look away.
I know that I can keep in touch.
And when you dim the light
You know I won't be gone for long.

I will live forever here on video.

Electrifying the airwaves, I'm on video.
You're so cruel to ever look away.

And if you need me, switch me on.
I'm always right behind the screen.
I'm beautiful forever now.
I'm living thirty minute dreams.

And if you want me, switch me on.
I'm living right beyond the screen,
The only place I feel at home.
I am your thirty minute dreams.

Somebody will love me here on video.
I will live forever here on video.
Everything looks beautiful on video.
You're so cruel to make me look away.
You're so cruel to make me look away.
