Invaders Songtext
von Maitreya

My vision blurred
Before my eyes
In my head, thoughts obscured
Everywhere I turn
Pervasive screens
Mind palace burns, to the ground

Live the love of media
Laugh yourself away
From any real authenticity

Back curved, head bent
Forget the wonder
Back curved, head bent
Invade my soul

Droning unaware
Of the real world all around
Your senses
Are we building knowledge
Or destroying wisdom


As life moves on
Let it serve us and grow
Infant innovation
Inhibit their control

Engage my sight
While my mind rots
Cancel our thoughts
Inviting Blight
Information
Condemnation

Crutch in the craving
Chained to black mirrors
Yet there′s still so much to learn
Experience more
Than I ever could before
But how much of it is real?

Beeping, data, pings
Drawing my attention
Silence all these infernal notifications
Will yourself unplugged
Cry some tears of joy
Let immersion die
Free from hidden ploy


In formation, godamn nation
In formation, godamn nation

Consuming entertainment
On an unprecedented level
Widespread engagement
Inside the enclosed space of virtual
Enhancing our field of view
Becoming numbers in a queue

Need not be
Integrated
Connections across the globe
Friendly faces communicated
Ascend from stupor
The nagging need for visceral
Reach further
Than previously thought possible

Coming back to life
Extending sight past eyes
Never really
Have to say goodbyes

As life moves on
Let it serve us and grow
Infant innovation
Inhibit their control

Engage my sight
Connect the dots
Upgrade our thoughts
Look to the light
Information, our salvation
