Flat screen.

you don't get it
why i'm searching through these old books 
what draws me to these two dimensional faces
facing me from their flat screens 
trying to say something with their clumsy words
and all they get is the laugh track
you still don't know
why i'm playing with this chemistry
changing the lengths of these curves
shifting the pitch of these sounds
looking through these stock characters
for something with a bit of bitter
a touch of tension

i'm just looking for a bang
to go out with
