Lyrics:

Cartoons from a television

Whistles from the street

Blackout curtains, summer sirens

Electricity

I don't need ice machines

I don't need speaker systems

I don't need white lights blinking

I don't need you to witness

I don't need your forgiveness

I don't need anything

Finally start to make connections

When everything goes dark

It's pulling me in all directions

It's tearing you apart

I don't need ice machines

I don't need speaker systems

I don't need white lights blinking

I don't need you to witness

I don't need your forgiveness

I don't need anything

But I do

What am I doing watching clocks?

Space is too empty, this room’s too hot

What am I doing wandering halls?

Ringing doorbells, pounding walls

I don't know what to say to people

It only makes things worse

It's time to take my silent treatment

This won't be the first

I don't need ice machines

I don't need speaker systems

I don't need white lights blinking

I don't need you to witness

I don't need your forgiveness

I don't need anything

But I do

What am I doing watching clocks?

Space is too empty, this room’s too hot

What am I doing wandering halls?

Ringing doorbells, pounding walls

A rock that fell from orbit

I roll across the carpet, under

Frozen flowers on the walls

Leaning on my shoulders

What am I doing watching clocks?

Space is too empty, this room’s too hot

What am I doing wandering halls?

Ringing doorbells, pounding walls

What am I doing watching clocks?

Space is too empty, this room’s too hot

What am I doing wandering halls?

Ringing doorbells, pounding walls
