Split Screen Lyrics
Another modern innovation
This time I mean it
A hazard of the occupation
Desire when needed
Set it down before you break it
This house ain't for children
Doing jumping jacks in the basement
These arms are reaching out
Hyperventilation
If I could be so bold
All the time
The weight of the feather
You fall like a leaf
Is this a middle-of-the-night call
A revelation on a split screen?
To see all the color
Run from your eyes
Is this a middle-of-a-life thought
A revelation on a split screen?
I discern some reservation
Disdain to put the boys in
At the face of obligation
The pain is in the poison
Unprescribed medication
Big plan, let's cancel
I'm a fan of your extensions
Your hair is like a puzzle
Hyperventilation
If I could be so bold
All the time
The weight of the feather
You fall like a leaf
Is this a middle-of-the-night call
A revelation on a split screen?
To see all the color
Run from your eyes
Is this a middle-of-a-life thought
A revelation on a split screen?
Out in the shadows
The fields are moving
You pack up your head case
And move the needle
Out in the shadows
The fields are moving
You pack up your head case
And move the needle 'round
Move the needle 'round
Move the needle 'round
This time I mean it
A hazard of the occupation
Desire when needed
Set it down before you break it
This house ain't for children
Doing jumping jacks in the basement
These arms are reaching out
If I could be so bold
All the time
You fall like a leaf
Is this a middle-of-the-night call
A revelation on a split screen?
To see all the color
Run from your eyes
Is this a middle-of-a-life thought
A revelation on a split screen?
Disdain to put the boys in
At the face of obligation
The pain is in the poison
Unprescribed medication
Big plan, let's cancel
I'm a fan of your extensions
Your hair is like a puzzle
If I could be so bold
All the time
You fall like a leaf
Is this a middle-of-the-night call
A revelation on a split screen?
To see all the color
Run from your eyes
Is this a middle-of-a-life thought
A revelation on a split screen?
The fields are moving
You pack up your head case
And move the needle
Out in the shadows
The fields are moving
You pack up your head case
And move the needle 'round
Move the needle 'round
Move the needle 'round

Lyrically, "Split Screen" dives into themes of modern disconnect and the struggle to find meaning in the whirlwind of life. Phrases like "modern innovation" and "desire when needed" paint a picture of a world where technology and constant striving create a sense of isolation. The imagery is striking: "the weight of the feather," "color run from your eyes", and the haunting line "pack up your head case." The song reaches its climax with the question: "Is this a middle-of-a-life thought? A revelation on a split screen?"
