Lyrics
Distraction
Flashing like a neon light
I?m dazzled by your artificial splendor
Mesmerized by stardust and
Hypnotized until I don?t remember.
Distraction, Distraction,
My attraction, & affair with the moment.
Distraction, Distraction,
My attraction, & affair with the moment.
Sparkling like a jewel bright
I?m blinded by your rainbow-prism brilliance
Moonstruck by daylight and
Compromised until I lose resilience.
You vie for my attention,
Cast glitter in my eyes,
Woo only for the moment,
And welcome compromise.
You appear to be eternal,
So obvious, yet vague,
Tyrannical and urgent,
Translucent, yet opaque.
