Lyrics
Soft Focus
The gray goes on forever
On the January skyline.
I think the night is lighter
Due to the neon strip-mall signs.
Soft focus,
Soft focus all the time.
Soft focus,
No need to draw the line.
I gaze here at a fortune
And I miss it every time.
My brain is numbed by laugh tracks,
Advertisements, and by crime.
Soft focus,
Soft focus all the time.
Soft focus,
No need to draw the line.
The news will look above you,
It will look off to a sign.
They say, "The globe is warming
But it won't spoil our good time."
Soft focus,
Soft focus all the time.
Soft focus,
No need to draw the line.
Soft focus in the paper,
Soft focus on TV.
Soft focus on The White House,
Soft focus overseas.
Soft focus as the bomb drops,
Soft focus on the lying.
Soft focus at the war's end,
Soft focus on the dying.
Soft focus,
Soft focus all the time.
Soft focus,
No need to draw the line.
