Deus Ex Machina

My name is humankind and you gotta understand
I'm a machine in the body of a man
I do what I do cause I was programmed to
So why don't you come watch me dance
I used to be alone but I have these ones and zeros by birthright
I built myself a screen just to stay up with the world on the weeknights

Deus Ex Machina, my apocrypha
I don't wanna be saved from myself
Oh, it's Deus Ex Machina, in absentia
And I know that I'm already in hell
Oh I think they should design it to do that
It should be my best friend, it should play a click track
Even if the tech's not there quite yet
It can feed me content while I surf the internet

I started from the Earth but I wanna see the stars
I got a system and it's taken me this far
I piled cities on cities but I lost my self respect
I burned it all at the altar of beloved Deus Ex

Machina, my apocrypha
I don't wanna be saved from myself
Oh, it's Deus Ex Machina, in absentia
And I know that I'm already in hell
Oh I think they should design it to do that
It should do my taxes, it should give me cash back
Even if the tech's not there quite yet
It can feed me content while I surf the internet

Oh I think they should design it to do that
It should run the government, it should have direct chat
Even if the tech's not there quite yet
It can feed me content while I surf the internet
