How come everybody wanna treat it like that?
Don't wanna loosen your hands
Yeah, you dare to look away and let the wheels fall off
And you loosen your hands
Yeah, but tell me one reason why they can't connect
When you loosen your hands

Lookin' through that lens the truth comes out
Living in pictures
Dare to look away and let the real fall out
Living in pictures

How can anybody wanna see it like that?
And you livin' it out
Yeah, you're lookin' through the lens where the illusions are rife
But you loosen your hands
Now tell me one reason why they can't connect
And you loosen your hands

Lookin' through that lens the truth comes out
Living in pictures
You can't bear to look away and let the real fall out
Living in pictures

To me this city makes a lonely sound
Living in pictures
A scene you love, the illusion is loud
Living in pictures

Oh, leave it alone with the honest sound
Living in pictures
I'll be leaving you alone, I hope it all works out
Living in pictures

Oh, oh, living in pictures
Oh, oh yeah, living in pictures
