Lyrics

If abstraction is the definition of beauty
Are those of us chasing after clarity
A representation of ugly?

CALL ME MOMMY
JUST LIKE YOUR FANTASY
There is no crime in ideality
MUX>>>DEMUX
Can’t you understand me?
I’m not mine NAND I’m not yours
Ah

This could end right here if you don’t let it out
Let it out
Give up or give me your all
Tell me now
Tell me now

If we can be completely simulated
Do we need a real reality?

Don’t let words die, let love run dry
Like what we did to the rivers we killed off in our near future
Ah
And mumble some stupid stuff
Like
“I saw it coming”
Pretend it’s not happening
Us losers do nothing so winners keep winning

Sit
Fetch your leash
DICTATED ECONOMY
Show me
Your belly
FORGOTTEN ECOLOGY
Stay
Okay, eat
HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY
g 0 0 d　b o i
Here’s a treat
HUNGRY FOR ENERGY

We are searching
Following our human instincts
Looking for ghosts of the non-existing kind
Who make us whole from the very beginning
We keep chasing
Dreaming about the perfect being
Perfect parents who are non-existing
Our bodies grew, our minds stayed the same

Now darling, where do we go from here?
Now darling, where do we go from here?
Now darling, where do we go from here?
Darling, darling
Hey honey, where do we go from here?
Hey honey, where do we go from here?
Now darling, where do we go from here?
Now darling, where do we go from here?
To where?

CALL ME DADDY
WHERE’S YOUR “YES SIR” & “PLEASE”?
That’s the only vocabulary you need
MUX>>>DEMUX
Can’t you understand me?
You turn my screen #0000ff

We could end right here if you’d just let us fall
Let us fall
No tears, no regrets
No zero-days at our fault
Hear me out
It’s a perfect plan

If you’d just
SHUT UP
SHUT UP
Then maybe you’ll see what I’ve endured now
Hear me out
LILULILALULALULA

It’s all just sunk cost, I know
But I’m not ready to stop
I don’t want to stop
