Magnetic Fields (The) lyrics : "When I'm Not Looking, You're Not There"

when I was young I saw a square
a hole where something should be there
I knew all this was just a cage

this knowledge has not changed with age
I knew then and I know it still
I'm being held against my will

inside this stupid hologram
so I won't find out who I am


I really just pretend to care
when I'm not looking, you're not there


and you and your disgusting lies
like gravity and compromise
and flesh and life and love and time

that's your opinion it's not mine
I live among the robots now
but I'll find my way out somehow

so save your big reality
for when you're so-called touching me


you're only colors in thin air
when I'm not looking, you're not there
