Self-Portrait |
I witnessed the rise of the machines |
An arduous path that has become a highway |
Overwhelmed by the pace of progress |
We surrendered to our own convenience |
Mandatory and addictive, a screen in every hand |
Dashing fingers, eyes dilated, wired to the bone |
Torn apart and isolated, we walk side-by-side |
All alone in the crowd, unrecognized |
Awoken by the humming that dictates our life |
We are no longer in control |
Self-portrait of an existence that was never ours |
On the verge of the shutdown |
Ironic and systematic, a created cosmos |
Betrayed by our own narcissism |
Incomplete and crippled by the scourge of each others life |
Insecure and sedated, caught inside our realm |
We walk these bytes in search for happiness |
Preoccupied and bound to our own demise |
Awoken by the humming that dictates our life |
We are no longer in control |
Self-portrait of an existence that was never ours |
On the verge of the shutdown |
