Once we were books on a shelf<br />
Patiently gathering dust<br />
Collection of fragile pages<br />
Slowly but surely combusting<br />
<br />
We are the flickering on your screen<br />
We are the files you can't redeem<br />
We are the green glow in your bedroom<br />
When you try to sleep at night<br />
We are unknown information<br />
We dwell in your R.O.M.<br />
We are ones and zeros<br />
Saved and yet condemned<br />
<br />
Our thoughts are reflections<br />
On the canvas of the universe<br />
Weightless ascension<br />
Through folders in reverse<br />
<br />
Is it fate? Is it pre-arranged?<br />
Connected through a cable<br />
Is it now? Is it somehow?<br />
Distracted and unable<br />
Is it true? Are we part of you?<br />
It depends on where you're standing<br />
Is it life? Is it worth of strive?<br />
It's not you but us commanding<br />
<br />
We are the static hum in your ears<br />
We are your deepest, darkest fear<br />
We are the image on your retina<br />
When you try to sleep at night<br />
<br />
Shallow conversations<br />
Lacking real substance<br />
Interfaces, in their faces<br />
Expressions never change<br />
We lurk behind your windows<br />
We make your icons bleed<br />
Through modem ports<br />
This mode imports a virus undetected<br />
<br />
Is it fate? Is it pre-arranged?<br />
Connected through a cable<br />
Is it now? Is it somehow?<br />
Distracted and unable<br />
Is it true? Are we part of you?<br />
It depends on where you're standing<br />
Is it life? Is it worth of strive?<br />
It's not you but us commanding<br />
<br />
Yesterday is today tomorrow<br />
Dreams in a time too near<br />
<br />
This path leads us nowhere<br />
But nowhere is better than here<br />
