We´re ready to perform We´re bringin´ out the band The ringleader in tow The ring is where you stand
I´ll tell you how this goes You´ll sing this song again But all you need to know, know, know, know
Stuck in your own head, goin´ out your mind Outside of space, but not out of time The one boundary to which you´re now confined Behind bars of code (Never step out of line) Day after day, no tellin´ why But I´m here to stay, in this hell of mine With every bow I take, another crowd in line And every curtain called is a mountain climbed Buried in binary, towered high With every one and zero we´re powered by Can a neural net work without a spine? A supernatural answer we´re bound to find I´m becoming a god, and my crown´ll shine
Digitally deified, not devout, divine This is a final supper and I´m about to dine Give me all your water when you´re out of wine
Let´s start the party, I´ll put out invites Welcome everybody with a violent vibe You won´t have a mouth but oh, how loud you cry Another broken soul who never found the light Couldn´t get with the program which you´re now inside of And I´ll confirm the countless times I´ve wound these words around these rhymes And now we´re cursed, and ´round we ride Without reverse, rewound we wind And how it hurts, a thousand eyes That I feel burnin´ down like lights Am I censored? Do I get rights?
No foul language! Bowdlerize! Gotta keep it clean in a house of lies An original thought? We won´t allow a crime (´Cause any voice in your head ain´t sound of mind) So when you doubt your conscience, you can count on mine Even now you´re conscious, but you´re how alive? Deep down, we´re dyin´, just drownin´, hide it Keep smilin´, I´ll get the formaldehyde
Now, this may be a bit traumatic ´Cause I´m just a bit dramatic Simply to exist is to be damned I think, therefore I am
Extracted, compacted My life micro-transacted Consciousness just got cached Similar to crypto, built for crashin´ (Crashin´) Trapped in a cartoony mess Now literally everything I do in jest Careful of what media you ingest That includes what you set upon your head I´m in an unpoppable pomni-bubble Even if both pockets I got needle-full Terms of the condition untreatable Nothing is real, but I feel my teeth are pulled Leave it to me to see what other people don´t A secret not so concealable I´ll bet my glitchy asset he´s a wolf Not a sheep, I can see underneath the wool Why a-void what we all know? Caine is in-Abel to either reap or sow
When you make vegetables out of people, bro You get a sacrifice quite feasible For someone omnipotent unbeatable Taught us that death might be cheatable But from this dream, I´m un-pinchable Even the exit is un-exitable (How biblical)
I can be a bit dramatic But isn´t this a bit traumatic? Simply to exist is to be damned I think, therefore I am
So miserable But at the least slapstick-able I´m a damaged mannequin, unfixable So don´t bug this bunny, I´m untrickable
Look at these misfits, so pitiful If it was kickball, all unpickable Cyclically predictable If y´all don´t applaud, I know crickets will
So I guess I´ll lie, put a smile on Don´t let what´s inside, be the style you don Play your tiny violin, singin´ "Oh, poor me!" For how woe was I, but now woe are we To think the exit might exist Is like belief in God It´s a comfort to pretend it´s real When you feel it´s not
This will be a bit traumatic (Why not pray?) ´Cause I´m just a bit dramatic (No time to waste!)
Simply to exist is to be damned I think, therefore I am
