I Turn My Camera On Lyrics
[Chorus 1]
I turn my camera on
I cut my fingers on the way, on the way
The way I'm slippin' away
I turn my feelings off
You made me untouchable for life, yea
And you wasn't polite
[Chorus 2]
It hit me like a tom
You hit me like a tom
On on and on
[Verse 1]
When I turn my feelings on
I turn my feelings on inside
Feel like I'm gonna ignite
I saw them stars go off
I saw them stars go off at night
And they're looking alright
Keep on blowin' up
Keep on blowin' em off
Get up, roll it out
Keep on showin' 'em out
[Chorus 2]
You hit me like a tom
It hit me like a tom
On and on a tom
[Chorus 1]
I turn my camera on
I cut my fingers on the way, on the way
I feel me slippin' away
I wipe my feelings off
You made me untouchable for life
And you wasn't polite
[Chorus 2]
You hit me like a tom
I don't know where it's from
It hit me like a tom-tom
[Outro]

And you’re sort of documenting the world. It...
