lyrics

We are sedimental
Pieces not essential
Eroding into +1's and likes

We are YouTube teachers
We are Reddit preachers
We're a box of pixels and lights

Measure life in numbers
Slopes are curving upward
Happiness a straight skyward line

It points me in directions that I just shouldn't mention
Cause there's no fucking end in sight

I'm soft I'm warm I'm full of blood
It's blue and red
I'm running just like everyone
Straight to my death
And it's nice to know there's not much more to life than that
I'm soft I'm warm I'm full of love
Let's go to bed
Without knowing why or how or when
Without knowing why or how or when

I've got dirty laundry
I've got stale clothes on me
I look like a total mess
I'm an eccentric winner
Or a rat straight out the shitter
It depends on my commercial success

And if I live for pleasure
Or if I hold out forever
Does it make any difference?

When music among mortals
Is a timeless portal
One fraction of an atom thick

I'm soft I'm warm I'm full of blood
It's blue and red
I'm running just like everyone
Straight to my death
And it's nice to know there's not much more to life than that
I'm soft I'm warm I'm full of love
Let's go to bed
Without knowing why or how or when
Without knowing why or how or when

The code is not the killer
The hardware's no blood spiller
It's the user that rings his own neck.
