lyrics

The body keeps the score
The body keeps the score
Though I’ve been gone a year or more
The body knows the score

If I don’t have to be good
And life is wild precious and mine
Can I take back my time?

Did it/didn’t mean something?
Ready for the grand gesture?
You’ll have to act impressed, yeah
Will I let you be
The villain of my memoirs?
Or will I keep it censored?

I’ve been an actor all my life
Ever since I learned how not to cry
Always putting logic at the fore
But now I yearn for my heart even more
[Has it all been a lie?]

And the TV says, the TV tells me to:
“When reality bites too much
Dissociate! Dissociate!
And you don’t wanna bite the dust
Dissociate!”

I’ve been an actor all my life
Ever since I learned how not to cry
Always putting logic at the fore
But now I yearn for my heart even more
And it seems a power to disconnect
But what of those who never get it back?
[The body keeps the score etc]

When the medium no longer matters
Everyone has every access
If the TV’s dead something still tells me to…

“When reality bites too much” etc

Could I direct myself
At what cost do I reattach those strings?
