Scratching the Surface Lyrics

So you won't tell me where you have been up to now

I don't know they have seen you come and go

(Oh) You are well on your way but never leaving the chair

Playing scenes on TV screens

Watching widely to glimpse the full view

While the hours have their hands all over you

You say that you see me, well I see you too

I look behind, what do you find, all but an empty room

Scratching the surface and you can't get away

You've travelled far and so far you have nothing to say

Chorus

Scratching the surface

You better come up for air

A new experience to get you there

Scratching the surface

You better come up for air

Strapped to the media, a machine for fear

You're onto something then it slips right away

It's in your hand, follow through right in front of you

You say that you hear me, well I hear you too

My secret is no secret outside of the tube

So you won't tell me, what you've done up to you

You're watching me, I'm watching you decide

(Oh) Scratching the surface, you can't get away

You tried so hard, and so far you have nothing to say
