Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In your mind, nothing but fear
You can't face life or believe death's near
[Verse 2]
A vision of life on television screens
An existence created from empty dreams
[Verse 3]
Hide behind TV, hide behind life
You should be living but you only survive
[Verse 4]
Life holds nothing but pain and death
Don't look for love, there is none left
Written by: Justin Broadrick, Nik Bullen, Mick Harris
