Digital Lies - Lord

Utopian dream or so they say

The world has changed

Tomorrow is today

Our lives enriched, enhanced

Nature obsolete

Fibre optic data stream

The only path we seek

Strapped down, alone, the table cold

I fear my fate

Around me tools and cables coiled

My forced «upgrade»

Stripped of my will and freedom sold

Skin ripped away

Augmented flesh and bone

Now taking shape

So come follow me

I’ll show you eternity

We’ll reach for the morning sky

Tomorrow is yours and mine

So come follow me

And live out your wildest dreams

A digital life arrived

A cybernetic future world, it’s time

Dystopian life is here to stay

Pushed too far ahead

Mankind lost their way

Our lives betrayed, replaced

Humanity obsolete

Crying tears of ohs and ones

And artificial screams

Cold steel and laser beams

Dismember limb from limb

My captors work and smile

With mirthless, heartless grins

A child of Frankenstein

Not man and not machine

Scheming sweet revenge

The likes before unseen
