Socket Songtext
von Battant

I met a man, he wore dark glasses
His tongue was tied, glazed out molasses
He shadowed behind from the corner to here
So you called him in to snuff out his fear
In the low light he felt more secure
We pried off the shades
Socket, socket eye
Find the lead, I wanna try
Socket, socket eye
Plug the TV into his mind
The shapes aren′t clear
But you can make out
A panicky girl
Gonna throw her take-out
The rum runs along across her scraggly brown hair
Through the static divides and down her denim leg tears
Cause in the low light she felt more secure
We pried off the shades
Socket, socket eye
Find the lead, I wanna try


Socket, socket eye
Plug the TV into his mind
When you think you've got the upper hand
It falls down to the weaker opponent
All your tricks and clever looks
Come running back to you
And in the midst of struggling power
You lose your step and stumble backwards
All your tricks and clever looks
Come running back to her
The screen grows bright
And tugs me harder
The figure fades, a stared-down martyr
Eggs creep down the walls
And my ears swell with noise
The glow spills out
Our room turns turquoise
Cause in the low light we felt more secure
We pried off the shades
Socket, socket eye
Find the lead, I wanna try
Socket, socket eye
Plug the TV into his mind
Socket, socket eye
Find the lead, I wanna try
Socket, socket eye
Plug the TV into his mind
Socket, socket eye
Find the lead, I wanna try
Socket, socket eye
Plug the TV into his mind
Socket, socket eye
Find the lead, I wanna try
Socket, socket eye
Plug the TV into his mind
Socket, socket eye
Find the lead, I wanna try
Socket, socket eye
Plug the TV into his mind
