Hang ten through barren digital landscape

See the regular denizens of the man made

Say what’s up, hit em with the cool hand raise

Meet em at the main frame, god damn i can’t wait

It’s new comer day, welcomed at twenty seven

The next step in trans-humanist ascension

Welcome to any time period you like

Customized afterlife, most seem slightly surprised

And that’s warranted, horde of default avatars

Unaware of hover cars or new status bars

Where any drink you can think of And more can be mixed up

Paradise surroundings and comically big cups

(x) Most exalted and newly alive

Though a loner looks haunted i see in his eyes

Active camo deployed, i move through the hive

I Slip him a whisper with this inscribed

Meet me at the quagmire

I know your soul feels it’s on fire

I can release you from this

If that’s truly your last wish

Meet me at the quagmire

Once your ghost’s grown old and tired

I can release you from this

If that’s truly your last wish

One man’s heaven is another man’s hell

One man’s home is another’s prison cell

Fond memories, is another man’s trauma

Explains why stagnation feels like nostalgia

Me? I been living the dream, i.e

I’ve been feeling like i’m living asleep

Seems like Hypnagogia been getting to me

I try to keep it real but i don’t really know that means

Reality been breaking down, tearing at the seams

Cracks turn to holes & the holes to ravines

So i’m swerving like a drunk on gran turismo 3

Hoping to timeout ‘fore i wrap this shit ‘round a tree

In the game of life i’m just AFK

Living like a fucking ghost waiting to fade away

Just a pillar of salt, standing in the rain

I’ve been buffering, just sipping on some malted grain

Literal ghost in machine, time wasn’t friendly to me

Left me diseased, stuck somewhere in between

I contravene, kharon ferry souls to the deep

Sick of this scene, all thing die in time

Except life on a digital screen

Bitcrushed screams

When you can have anything

Nothing will have meaning

That’s where we’re at, Long for imperfect past

Simplicity that has long passed

Cypher in the matrix, screams put me back

Tear flow freely at memorial plaque

The past needle sick and in bed

(x) Mutated, now undead

Spewing clickbait that’s nostalgia fed

And the worst is still to be ahead

It’s a different world than three decades ago

Maybe we should just let it go

It’s a different world than three decades ago

We age fast but time doesn’t slow

It’s a different world than three decades ago

Put the shit on and pretend we don’t know

It’s a different world than three decades ago

It’s a different world, it’s a different world

(same planet different world)
