Check your pulse, it’s

Proof that you’re not lis-ten-ing to

The call your life’s been is-su-ing you

The rhythm of a line of idle days

Scared of a world outside

You should go explore

Pull all the shades and

Wander the great indoors

Lamplight makes the shadows play

And pos-ters take the walls away

Pull all the shades and

Wander the great indoors
