Breathing Wires

addicted to razors
lashes to saviors
glued to the monitor
trained behavior
reduced to a number
mechanic enslavement
a virtual prison
selected detainment

a gradual nightmare
suicidal impulse
a cycle of habit
undeniable loss
breathing by wire
a network of heroes
processing data
as ones and zeros

carry me through the wires
bury me in the screen
shift me into this fixation
cling to the machine
(Repeat)

this is now your world
and you barely made it
did you think that it would cradle you
until you were asleep forever?

did you? did you? did you? did you?
(Repeat)

carry me through the wires
bury me in the screen
shift me into this fixation
cling to the machine
(Repeat)

this is now your world
and you barely made it
did you think that it would cradle you
until you were asleep forever?

did you? did you? did you? did you?
(Repeat)
