Binary Songtext
Scrolling through avatars
While strolling in parks
So engrossed in screens
Don′t know our elbow from our arse
Microchips replacing hearts
So inarticulate it hurts
Mispunctuated, abbreviated
Total disregard of words
Everyone's at it, social media addicts
Expressions in the medium of colons and brackets
Our thumbs have become tongues
We are numbers and categories
Rather type than as a one-man
We exist in binary
Our lives, stored as gigabytes
On hard drives, memories we wipe
But we still buy the dream we′re being sold
Even though we know it's bullshit
'Cause if it′s what you want (carry on)
′Cause if it's what you want (don′t listen)
'Cause everything′s gone wrong
Emotions made of zeros and ones
Made of zeros and ones
Digital amorality
The pitiful reality
A place we all feel safe to be as nasty as we wanna be
Distracted by it constantly, this open source library
Consumed by this technology, uh, this is binary
Our lives, stored as gigabytes
On hard drives, imagined real life
But we still buy the dream we're being sold
Even though we know it′s bullshit
'Cause if it's what you want (carry on)
′Cause if it′s what you want (don't listen)
′Cause everything's gone wrong
Emotions made of zeros and ones
Made of zeros and ones
You′re just a number
Oh, you're just a number
Oh, you′re just a number
Oh, you're just a number
Oh, you're just a number
Oh, you′re just a number
Oh, oh, you′re just a number
Oh, oh, you're just a number
Oh, oh, you′re just a number
Oh, oh, you're just a number
Oh, oh, you′re just a number
Oh, oh, you're just a number
Oh, oh, you′re just a number
Oh, oh, you're just a number
Oh
Our lives, stored as gigabytes
On hard drives, memories we wipe
But we still buy the dream we're being sold
Even though we know it′s bullshit
′Cause if it's what you want (carry on)
′Cause if it's what you want (don′t listen)
'Cause everything′s gone wrong
Emotions made of zeros and ones
Made of zeros and ones
You're just a number
Oh, you're just a number
Oh, you′re just a number
Oh, you′re just a number
While strolling in parks
So engrossed in screens
Don′t know our elbow from our arse
Microchips replacing hearts
