Description
Love here is like a broken TV - it flickers, hisses, and picks up a signal only when you least expect it. It seems like the picture is about to come into focus, but instead of warm light, there is interference and the background hum of electricity. And yet you don't turn it off. Because in these fragments, where the pain is dulled by “novocaine” and feelings are spilled like coffee on a table, there is a strange consolation.
You seem to be alive, you seem to be going about your business - but suddenly the wet tiles are slippery with memories. Someone calls, someone is silent, and between you there is only the noise of the airwaves. Such is the tenderness of the post-digital era: love through a screen, where even silence has Wi-Fi.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Standing in the parking lot.
Meet me in the corner shop.
I'm not getting over the pain.
Someone give me Novocaine.
I'm bleeding love all over the place.
A sea of blood hide my face.
I'm bleeding love all over the place.
A sea of blood hide my face.
Walking with my favorite song.
Look at me, I'm looking strong.
Saw you at a traffic stop, waiting for the ground to drop.
Slipping on the bathroom tiles, feeling tall and catching flies.
I'm kinda getting over the shame.
Someone give me Novocaine.
I'm bleeding love all over the place.
A sea of blood hide my face.
I'm bleeding love all over the place.
A sea of blood hide my face.
Oh, your call rang out, not a second out.
Drove up to your house and your lights went out. Television love.
Oh, your call rang out, not a second out. Conversation drought.
Drove up to your house, sleep inside your couch. Television love.
Oh, your call rang out, not a second out. Conversation drought.
Television love. Drove up to your house, sleep inside our couch.
When the lights go out. Television love.
What if we don't connect the head now?
What if we just don't think at all now?
Television love.
What if we don't connect the head now?
What if we just don't think at all now?
Television love.
Television love.
Television love.
A lady who I. Television love.
A sea of love
