Private Lives Songtext
von Sam Sparro

Private lives

We only frame the pictures we want the world to see
We hide our true desires, unconsciously
Mmm
And we pretend that

Nobody′s watching, nobody knows what's really going on
′Cept for the government, tabs on your internet and wires on your phone

Hidden inside of Alpha walls
For only your eyes to see
Is anything secret anymore
Is anything just for me

Private lives
Deep inside'v me
Private lives
Deep inside'v-
It′s only for your eyes


You only know [?], free your mind
And just put down your vibe, (Yeah)
No one will ever know, what we never show
Outside our private lives

Nobody′s watching, nobody knows what's really going on
′Cept for the government, tabs on your internet and wires on your phone

Hidden inside of Alpha walls
For only your eyes to see
Is anything secret anymore
Is anything just for me

Private lives
Deep inside'v me
(Ay-ay-ay)
Private lives
Deep inside′v-
It's only for your eyes

Deep inside′v
O-o-o-oh


You are free to do what you like
That is your right
And for you to be private
Unless we see fit, to call it, illicit
For how can we stop the global assailants
Without a global surveillance
There's always somebody responsible, someone who's culpable
Someone to blame for your broken dreams
We′re just trying to save you
From those of a dark complexion, from averse in need of correction
From the lady in the [?] who′s stealing your job
From the ones who won't comply, though we don′t mean to pry
Inside, your pri-vate lives

Private lives
Deep inside'v me
Private lives
Deep inside′v-
It's only for your eyes
(It′s just for you)

Private lives
Deep inside'v me
(It's only for your eyes)
Private lives
Deep inside′v-
It′s only for your eyes
It's only for your eyes

Deep inside′v-
It's only for your eyes
