lyrics

My life is black and white
Can't tell the day from night
To get the colour free
Do I need my TV ?
A broken mirror frame
Down on the floor again
The glass is everywhere
I see you standing there

The image is disguised
All vanity and lies
It's in the way you dress
Failure is no success

Without a filter life is passing by
Time is moving and we don't ask why
Take a picture that will go unseen
We'll make adjustments to the silver screen

Get the balance right
Beamed in by satellite
An electric shock
Now try and beat the clock
Don't shoot the messenger
Or raise the temperature
I guess the time is now
For them to show you how

Where did the colour go ?
From everything we know ?
Hit pause we're heading home
Go back to monochrome

Without a filter life is passing by
Time is moving and we don't ask why
Take a picture that will go unseen
We'll make adjustments to the silver screen

Swipe left, swipe right
The future's not so bright
Swipe left, swipe right
Oh, the future is not so bright
