Is this the end computer friend
Your memory failed your system's dead
To log me out they shut you down
To save a life your memory died
We don’t talk about the things we see
The suffering the homeless and the weak
They changed you into something you can’t be
When they upgraded you to version 3
When I’m closed and removed
After a day of being used
Hard and soft
I’ve blow a fuse
Powered down
Distorting the news
Shaping ya views
Pull up ya pews
I’m a mirror of you
Love death, crews and troops
Play a game
I know you’ll lose
I’m hardwired
To hide truths
But I’ll show you
Every possible clue
Information for
The browns and the blues
Connecting and
Disconnecting when
I choose
Going slow till I freeze
Chronologically
And then they’ll upgrade me
Taking everything I know
And I’ve seen
Left with nothing
But a purpose to feed
Feeling useless when my power is weak
Now you're gone...
I’ll join you when
I fall asleep
Nothing can replace the things we’ve seen
And nothing really matters when you dream
I became a number on a screen
When they upgraded you to version 3
The suffering abusive men
The broken hearts of lesbians
Is this all that I can ever be?
Computers are the new humanity
They took my life and stole me memories
When they upgraded you to version 3
