We Are Turned Off Please Turn Us On Again

The faceless book of lies and deceit
Look at my burger, looking so tasty
Inside the actor looking for adournment
How are you doing, look at this video of a dog falling over
Please see me, understand my pain, share my fears
Binary feelings sent through the ether
Truth reviled and trolled
A million meanless conversations
that could never emote to anothers touch
The soul sucking software that causes humanity to stall in its growth
Computers dont hug back
Download a film.replay a track
We all are infected.without a cure
The real computer virus that we pass with no remorse
We are humanity.
We are turned off
Please turn us back on.
Look at my life isnt it so good
then why do i upload plastic memory falsehoods
Commiting suicide by deleting my profile
And begining life by turning from the ambient light
No longer the lone fly caught in the electric web
Tell me internet where is your soul
and what will i be
