Acting: On-Campus Television

Acting; On-Campus Television - The Faint

Campus is getting bigger

They are working on it all the time

Acting on the T V

I can see their faces

Red alert the siren's loud

They drifted out all coming back coming back

This job takes dedication

When things start with no beginning

It doesn't mean that they aren't true

As the current through the atlas

Nips the wrist with a fork through it

Half the battles fueled with hate

Many loathsome fights were sacred

Shout the crew who hold their swatches

They paint on the set and cry

Ice is plastic enough to try to sculpt with it

The color curdles and waves drip down

And I'm still thinking about the time a scene takes them

The dormitories are awful quiet

Acting on the T V

And he's not pretending

I'm convinced that there's not something else beneath

The pixeled screen

An army edit

The set was finished last

Ice is plastic enough to try to sculpt with it

Color curdles and waves drip down

I'm still thinking about the time a scene takes up

The dormitories are awful quiet

And these swollen eyes and static lens

They blink when there's nothing but T V

We beg for it to calm us down

And believe that it's real what they're doing

These swollen eyes

And static lenses

They blink on and off and on and on
