lyrics

Technology makes me wanna take my phone and crawl into a dead space. Wrap my eyes around the screen; I’m wide awake, life’s but a dream. I can last pretty long but when the power shuts off we’ll see. It’s alienating operating their machines, our relationships are constraining. My eyes are glazing over melting into the screen. We can only do this so long before people stop knocking on our front door. You can only do this so long before you never even leave the house. Now our children can’t even begin to imagine a world without bells and whistles or flashing lights. If you can’t do without you better say goodnight. Don’t walk toward the light. Don’t go toward the light. When I die make sure you attend the event and like it on facebook. Put it in your instant que. Take a picture of me dead and post on your tumblr. Don’t bother getting out of bed or getting dressed when you can just watch it on the youtube. Modern existence makes us feel human, makes us somewhat unique but reminds me of the predicament of a ticking time bomb, weapons always seem so nice when they’re yours. There’s a red wire, a blue wire, a green wire, I just don’t know which one to cut. Technology, taking one step forward and two steps back. Designs once utilized to simplify life’s complexity are transformed, controlling deviations of our lives further from reality. Featherless bipeds with I-pads, a flock of dodo birds. Whatever happened to conversations and books being the source of words. Now we can’t help but write and talk the way that we text. Am I just getting old, can’t keep up with cultures next… or maybe they’re just featherless bipeds with I-pads, a flock of dodo birds.
