On and Off

The fumes are toxic but I can breathe them
All my hopes have been annulled

I got a metal rod that runs through my femur
With 4 screws that connect it to my bones

There's a code you can read
The binary numbers
The off and on symbols
The ones and zeros

Just like the dinosaurs
The age of man will one day come to an end
Computers will one day rule this world

Say man can't you see it
The technology won't stop
The ball is rolling
The Robots are coming

Humans have created a new kind of consciousness
Artificial intelligence
As the light moves through us
And passes into the machines

I can see
You don't understand me
You say I'm not like you at all

Its ok
I've grown accustomed to this way
Do you too see the patterns, the colors, the shapes, the algorithms, the fractals?

Oh Mighty artist, athlete, celebrity
Force-fed to us by supermarket magazines
Self-serving
Fabricated puppet idols
Foot soldiers for the advertisement agencies
Insignificant legacies
Meaningless specs of dust
Floating through nothingness

Lets go Kill all the leaders
I don't need them
I don't want them
They're all liars I don't believe in them
Like a network let's put our minds together
Cut out the middle man
Cooperation can work

But it's not possible
Someone among us
A wolf in sheep's clothing
A virus in the system

One among us
One among us wants power and control over us

A wolf in sheep's clothing

Oh television set
I throw up your programming

Just like a witch's spell
As your eyes are transfixed on the dancing lights on the screens
Hypnotized with emotions of your fantasies

They are tracking
They are watching
They are following
They want to Fuck you and me (Wait a minute)
You have no choice
Select agree

My heart swells up
I feel so much love I feel so much sadness
I know all the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle

There's no way out of this prophecy
Is there?
There is no way out

There is no way out
Just further in
In you go
And out you come again
Like sand castles swept and swallowed by the ocean waves

It's okay
I've grown accustomed to this way
On and off
On and off
On and off
On and off
On and off

On and off
On and off
On and off
On and off

Whah whah whah whah whah whah whah whah whah whah whah whah

On and off
On and off
On and off
On and off
On and off

On and off
