[Verse 1]

Screen

Someone somewhere bought a brand new rifle

Pointed at a man holding a bible

So sad you won't believe it, but I swear to God I've seen it

Right there on a TV screen

Shooting stars all burning up the night sky

Something someone sees once in a lifetime

You gotta look on up 'fore it's gone, but damn if we ain't fixed on

A good-for-nothing cellphone screen

[Pre-Chorus]

See the world, take it in, catch a sunrise

With your own eyes

[Chorus]

I wanna drive, wanna run till the wires run out

I need to heal, need to feel, like I'm alive right now

Pull the plug, just shatter the glass

Make it stop, these days under a rock doesn't sound half bad

Put me alone, singing 'long to a red bird song

I wanna live like they did in the great unknown

Yeah, if you need me I'll be watching the storm

Somewhere from a chair just staring through a back porch

Screen

[Verse 2]

A baseball getting dusty at a Walmart

Could send a kid all the way to Wrigley ballpark

Might be a hall of fame one

The whole world knows his name one

But he'd rather hit a homerun on a screen

[Chorus]

I wanna drive, wanna run till the wires run out

I need to heal, need to feel, like I'm alive right now

Pull the plug, just shatter the glass

Make it stop, these days under a rock doesn't sound half bad

Put me alone, singing 'long to a red bird song

I wanna live like they did in the great unknown

Yeah, if you need me, I'll be watching the storm

Somewhere from a chair just staring through a back porch screen

[Bridge]

Take a good look out the window

Keep it in your pocket at the rock show

Just give it a try

Every battery does but your memory will never die

[Chorus]

I wanna drive, wanna run till the wires run out

I need to heal, need to feel, like I'm alive right now

Pull the plug, just shatter the glass

Make it stop, these days under a rock doesn't sound half bad

Put me alone, singing 'long to a red bird song

I wanna live like they did in the great unknown

Yeah, if you need me I'll be watching the storm

Somewhere from a chair just staring through a back porch

[Outro]

Screen

Yeah, through a back porch screen

See the world, take it in, catch a sunrise

With your own eyes
