DISCONNECTING FROM THE GRID

I SEE BEYOND THIS MORTAL TOY

NEUROMANTIC NOT SURPRISED

TO BE A PART OF SCI-DEFIED REALITY

I SEE NO TV READ NO NEWS

WHEN I WAS YOUNG A BLEW A FUSE

MY DAYS ARE STRICTLY FILLED

WITH FIRST HAND XP

I KNOW I’M WISE BEYOND MY FEARS

AND THAT’S REALLY REALLY COOL

UNTIL I FIND MYSELF

LOGGED ON AGAIN

ANDREW LLOYD WORLD WIDE WEBBER

SING! SING ME OFF THIS THING

I’M PINGING ALL OF THE TIME

IT’S REALLY MAKING ME CHIME

MAKING ME CHIME

IT’S JUST YOU

NO IT’S NOT

IT DOES NOT BELONG TO ME

SOMETHING IS BREATHING THROUGH ME

AND I DON’T GET IT

THAT’S CRUDE

REALLY THAT’S CRUDE

IT’S THEM

NO IT IS NOT

I CAN NOT BLAME ANYONE BUT ME

MAN YEAH I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN

I’VE BEEN HALF ASLEEP FOR DAYS AND FOR WEEKS

SOMETHING

IS BREATHING THROUGH ME

you know how

I CAN’T DISCONNECT RIGHT NOW

MY HALF-DEAD BODY IS KEPT AWAKE

I’M HOOKED A LUNG

THESE BREATHS ARE NOT MY OWN

THOUGH THEY TRACE TO MY IP

MASS CONSCIOUSNESS FEEDS ON US ALL

AND I KNOW THIS CALLS

FOR PRESENCE

BUT RIGHT NOW I CAN’T

I’M JUST A MAN

I’M PINGING ALL OF THE TIME

IT’S REALLY MAKING ME CHIME

MAKING ME CHIME

IT’S JUST YOU

NO IT’S NOT

IT DOES NOT BELONG TO ME

SOMETHING IS BREATHING THROUGH ME

AND I DON’T GET IT

THAT’S CRUDE

REALLY THAT’S CRUDE

PULL THE PLUG

NO I JUST CAN’T

I CAN-CAN-CAN CONTROL THIS NOW

SOMETHING IS RESPIRATING me

- AN ALVEOLUS THAT CAN BE

SO MUCH MORE

I DISCONNECT RIGHT NOW
