Mindless searching

Awaiting something good

Mindless scrolling

Excusing what you could

Mindless watching

Observing flame burn wood

Mindless fiction

Change terrifies

Me and you

But what can you do

It's happening

It's burning

We're drowning

This future seems vacant

Inconceivable

But too near

Mindless ticking

The small print never read

Mindless blocking

Dying voices put to bed

Mindless liking

Written quotes not to be said

Mindless façade

Don't ever break the loop

We're in for good

We're locked inside the design

We're scared to face

The changes that are

Calling you

From the outside

You never see people pick and choose

But those highlights keep depressing you

Keep scrolling, finding something to do

But look these plastic bags of content are brand new

For me, I use to distract myself

The world is falling more off of it's shelf

Suffocating's bad for your health

But I stopped breathing I think that helps

Mindlessly awaiting

Mindlessly awaiting

Mindlessly awaiting

Mindlessly awaiting for a cure to come

Feel that daunting weight quietly slumber

Whispers don't leave you'll be dead in thunder

Stay online and be in touch for a few

But look how connected we all grew

Make sure you have yourself a side

Behave a certain way and they'll decide

Please forget thinking for yourself

All for the cost to stay civilised

What ever happened to peace and love

What ever happened to helping strangers

What ever happened to being one world

What ever happened to no push for shove

All these expectations cause tensions to rise

Binary oppositions over time

Human borders further synthesized

There goes our private lives

Where the hell did all the good times go

I want to distract myself but I feel more woe

Getting fixated on skewed stories though

I can't believe any of it to be true

I can't tell who's motivated

Or those who are uneducated

There's such a stark difference in-between

But you're never going to see behind the screen

Satire or truth

The lines blend more and more

It's just another short boost so

I don't mourn anymore

You see they want me to love this hyperreal world

I'm in love with the hyperreal world

I don't want to live in the real world

I'll pay my time for the hyperreal world

I'm in love with the hyperreal world

I'm in love with the hyperreal world

I'm in love with the hyperreal world

I'm in love with the hyperreal world

I'm in love with the hyperreal world

Mindless searching

Awaiting something good

Mindless scrolling

Excusing what you could

Mindless watching

Observing flame burn wood

Mindless singing

I think it's time for a new song
