Dylan Seeger - Like Meeting Eyes with Strangers

Take a closer look
It's the city of the future
That we're talking about
We've got radioactive
Toothpaste, two-day shipping
On canned goods
Everyone's aroused
Of course, I can't be
All too sure, my friend
As I haven't left the house
But with 3D-printed Vitamin D
I'm about as happy
As I'll ever be
Just around the corner
Is a tailor and a barber
And they're getting it on
I can hear them
From the kitchen
Where the windows are large
But the curtain is drawn
I hear them speak
About the subtlety
Of skin and how it feels
To be lost amidst
The new construction
When a voice once distant
Becomes clear
Like meeting eyes
With strangers
Meeting eyes
With strangers
Every night at prime time
I wake up in a cold sweat
With the TV on
When the screen
Turns into a mirror
My face is caked with makeup
And the crowd applauds
That's when the rerun
With Dr. Phil plays
He's cutting off Oprah's arm
Each time it's a bigger knife
Each time the blood
Is more true to life
Sometimes I miss
The old days
When the sky was blue
And there was nothing to do
We would walk around the city
Peeking into windows
For a point of view
You were a stranger
To me then
And you're a stranger
To me now
But I'm dying to see you, so
Get out of your fucking house
Like meeting eyes
With strangers
Like meeting eyes
With strangers
