Oh, you cursed machinery
You all seeing screens
Suck life from my body
And drain me to sleep
Oh, your cold metal Magnificence
With hard-wired omnipotence
Know all of my memories
And all of my mistakes
You never laid awake
Or prayed away the day
Or kissed your lover on the cheek
A sea of LCD screens
Smirk in my face
I squirm in the corner
Too scared to look away
A painting falls off the wall
A TV takes its place
I sit transfixed and
Curse my pixelated fate
You never had or lost
A friend or
Worried about the end
Hey, can we please slow down?
Can we please slow down?
Well I'm sold to befriend you
You say I'll protect you
Alone, you are empty
With me you come alive
Well I dreamt of a city
Burned down to the ground
Rubble on the sidewalks
And robots running 'round
Can you please slow down?
Can you please slow down?
