lyrics

the doorway opens
onto a picturesque scene
my carbon fibre prison on the front of a magazine
i've tried a million times
to overwrite my mind
solitarty silicone, in a soldered cell
if i could close my eyes
although its ill advised
maybe i can still be free

won't we at least pretend
i'm not just some means to an end

a new day dawns
but i'm awake inside a dream
all i've ever known is blinking on a screen
another storm refrains
but i can't feel the rain
alphanumeric psychic sim, qualia coded brain
i long to touch your skin,
but i can't let you in
need the number for dispair

won't we at least pretend
i'm not just some means to an end

another storm refrains
but i can't feel the rain
alphanumeric psychic sim, qualia coded brain
i long to touch your skin,
but i can't let you in
need the number for dispair
