Great Indoors

John Mayer

Check your pulse it's proof that you're not listening to 
The call your life's been issuing you 
The rhythm of a line of idle days 

Scared of a world outside you should go explore 
Pull all the shades and wander the great indoors 
The great indoors 

Lamplight makes the shadows play 
And posters take the walls away 
The T.V. is your window pane 
The view won't let you down 
So put your faith in a late night show 
I bet you didn't even know 
Depends on how far out you go 
The channel numbers change 

Scared of a world outside you should go explore 
Pull all the shades and wander the great indoors 

Though lately I can't blame you 
I have seen the world 
And sometimes wish your room had room for two 

So go unlock the door 
And find what you are here for 
Leave the great indoors 
Please leave the great indoors 

Check your pulse it's proof that you're not listening to 
The call your life's been issuing you 
The rhythm of a line of idle days of idle days
