Video Logic

John Lawry


Shot down to the video store
Gonna watch a movie tonight
Gotta see the latest flick
Temptations got a hold real tight
I scan the shelves up and down
Which one shall I choose
There are comedies and thrillers
Tough guys and chillers
Guess I'll watch the zombie killers

But then I hear a voice that's warning
Be careful what you see
Could be more than just my conscience
Revealing what I need

I need video logic
I need remote control
I need viewer descretion
Let God take control

The movie's thru
Everyone's gone
Yet the images remain
The things I wish I hadn't seen
Keep replaying in my head
All alone I drop to my knees
Covered by conviction
Lord please take control
Help me with my video, my video, my video

There's a price to pay for what we see
We don't escape for free
We are what we are because of what we allow
Are we becoming what we want to be
