Haven't got a grip on this illusion   No, I never had a face meant for the screen   So, wake me when it's over   To show here I give in   Shake me when it's over   I know her, I need her skin   When do we begin to live?      We forgive and we trust   'Cause we'd die to be one in the same   It's a state of emotion   We won't live to deny   This is real, this is live   T.V. show   It's a scene in slo-motion      Haven't got a clue to this confusion   No, I never wrote an ending for the scene   So, wake me in the summer   My lover, I give in   Take me in the summer   My wonder, my killer sin   When do we begin to live?      We forgive and we trust   'Cause we'd die to be one in the same   It's a state of emotion   We won't live to deny   This is real, this is live   T.V. show   It's a scene in slo-motion   It's a scene in your slo-motion   Emotion      Just a scene in a slo-motion picture life   Just a scene from a slo-motion picture life   Babe, I'm never gonna make the same   Mistakes for the frame   I'm never gonna let catastrophe change my face   I'm never gonna make the same   Mistakes for the frame   I'm never gonna lose reality again   I'm never gonna make the same   Mistakes for the frame   I'm never gonna let catastrophe change my face   I'm never gonna make the same   Mistakes for the frame   I'm never gonna lose reality again
