Lyrics:

Starlight in motion caught in a frame
She lights up the picture time and again
Luminous in dead of night
She’s crystalline in black and white
TV light guides me next to her
Behold natural phenomena
In close up from head to toe
Possessed by … ‘the girl in the video’
And I lose myself again
We cut to black
And I’m on my knees
My breath is loud
My hands are tied
I’m trying hard to find the lies
Flesh is stronger than spirit I cry
Makes my loneliness so magnified
A drop of blood spins on a dime
As I tune in for the very last time
White noise on the flickering screen
Hollywood is burning it’s quite a sight to be seen
Ain’t got the time to moralise
The revolution is being televised
And I lose myself again
We cut to black
And I’m on my feet
My breath is loud
My hands are untied
And who I am, sanctified
