End the harsh light
(Close your eyes)
With the blinds pulled slowly closed
(Think about the sun)
Dream a shore line
(Draw a breath)
A lazy spot to hear the ocean roar
(Sink into your down)
Plan a journey across the seas to touch the faces in the east
Lick your lips
Take another sip
Have you looked about this place?
Have you felt the window sill?
Run your hands along the bars
Ooh how very soft they feel
Feel your face and start to think
Of all the ways you are ignored
Twist your neck
Arch into a yawn
Velvet
I see velvet
Velvet
I feel velvet
Give me velvet
I want
Velvet
I see velvet
(And it feels nice)
I feel velvet
(Such a high price)
Give me velvet
I want
Ooh. Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop
Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop Bop
Prop your phone up with a book
And wonder just how long it took
To trade your goals
For an easy game
Swipe your screen
(Convince yourself)
Wipe the tear that fills the corner of your eye
(Boredom is the norm?)
A passing glance
(Let out a sigh)
To tragic stories in your pleasant privacy
(Hope it goes away)
Dodge the guilt that tries to lift
Shift your pillow just a bit
Make a plan
To change before you drift
Though you're caught you still pretend
And you might until the end
If the spell cannot be snapped
The velvet prison has you trapped
Aah
Aah
Aah
Aah
Velvet
I see velvet
I feel velvet
Give me velvet
I want
Velvet
I need velvet!
I see velvet
(And it feels nice)
I feel velvet
I need velvet!
(Such a high price)
Give me velvet
And it feels nice
I want...
Velvet
I need velvet!
I see velvet
I need velvet!
Velvet
I feel velvet
I need velvet!
Velvet
I see velvet
I feel velvet
Give me velvet
I want
Velvet
Give me velvet
I want
