Victim Convenience

I took two steps out of the door
And I got two steps away and then I turned
The screen was calling I could not resist

You could find a bead of light
You can cause the outside window to dull
Pause until the evening turns
And it's a.m. routine job or the pills

We're all on cable I V drips
Let red cells pix elate us
Constant help needed to unhook
Call it 'Victim Convenience'

I took two steps out of the room
And I stepped back toward the door
And tried again, a conversation
And it went like this

I could talk for hours to you
I could watch your mouth and eyes look shut
The controller's lost and I'd
Rather commit power than hear this out

We're all on cable I V drips
Let red cells pix elate us
Constant help needed to unhook
Call it 'Victim Convenience'
