Paroles: Chris Thile. Ready for Anything.

I forget the difference between being in love
And being familiar with something I hope I'm above
Hear a lie enough and it cuts like the gospel
'Cuz when you're half-awake, no mistake is impossible

I'm a child again, lost and happy in make believe
I'm lazy now, so someone's pretending for me
An untouchable man who holds his hand out to millions
Anyone can share his beautiful heroes and ugly villains

I spend a lot of time watching my TV
I take what they give me and I give them nothing
But I waste a lot of time watching my TV
Got me right where they want me, ready for anything

I forget the difference between being loved
And being a loose pocket, worn-wallet, short-sighted
Friend to lift money off of

Maybe I'm playing their game
so I can have a show where I stick 'em like a pig one day

Tell 'em they can go to hell 'cause they don't know another way
Or maybe I'm here 'cause it's something to do
You know still waters can run shallow too
I could watch myself run dry

So I spend a lot of time watching my TV
I take what they give me and I give them nothing
But I waste a lot of time watching my TV
Got me right where they want me, ready for anything

I forget the difference between being alive
And living through somebody else who's acting out somebody else's life
