Cracked screen, a glow, a midnight blue. Static hummin' nothin' new. Phantom limbs still reachin' out No one left to scream and shout. The fridge is full of ancient gloom, Just the echo in this room. Used to be a riot here, Now it's just the silence, dear. The world keeps spinning, slow and gray, Another hour drifts away. I'm stuck in the groove, the needle skips, On every promise from your lips. Oh, the Plastic Beach is empty now, The sky reveals its angry brow. Best friend gone, and all that’s left Is this mundane, endless theft. Boredom’s a ghost with glassy eyes, Watching the same sun fail to rise. I’m on the circuit, power down, Just another casualty in this town. Yeah, I got the notes, the scribbled maps, Found your dusty, old baseball caps. Thought I’d be wild, tearin’ up the place, Smash a window, leave without a trace. But the anger's flat, the energy's low, Just a hum from the amplifier glow. Tried to burn your favorite jeans, Ended up just watchin' the washing machine. It’s a dull apocalypse Just sittin' here, waitin' for the gate. The traffic whispers, 'round and 'round, I’m anchored to this silent ground. I'm stuck in the loop, the memory glitch, Flipping through the channels, scratch, I twitch. Oh, the Plastic Beach is empty now, The sky reveals its angry brow. Best friend gone, and all that’s left Is this mundane, endless theft. Boredom’s a ghost with glassy eyes, Watching the same sun fail to rise. I’m on the circuit, power down, Just another casualty in this town. You took the color, left the wireframe. Just old photos, void of your name I wish I could be sadder, feel the sting, But the sorrow refuses to sing. It’s a flat line, a monotone drone, I’m alone, I’m just totally alone. Didn't even change the locks. ...Got your favorite brand of socks. ...Still waiting for the call. ...Staring at the wall. ...Bored. ...Bored.
