Artificial Paradise - Sex With Machines (2023 Version)

Waiting for the train at the
End of your road
Emotions keep the street lights
Flickering low
You gotta get that loving cancer
Coursing through your system
Eating at the mind and soul
With every faint addiction
Full blown nihilism
Shoot it through your veins
Take it back to that dull moment
Standing in the rain
Wondering just where to go and
What to do and how to feel
About the short infinity
Where freedom waits for you to heal
I can't wait to watch the minutes change
And watch my dreams in fragments
Assemble yourself in the midst of the blank
And make this place your home
That mirror's glaring right back at you
You cannot sleep until you're through
If then comes the day you take my eyes with plans make them new
Then inanimate I'll become for you
And return to feel
That I'm so ideal
I'm still waking up
In the middle of the day
'Cause I can't stop feeling like my body's
Fading away
While the night it pulls me in to keep me
Feeling like a specter
Basking in the riot of my
Self-obsessive lecture
If life is just a period
Of my own perceived experience
With gifts that come in myriads
With time to try experiments
But time to chip away at how
Relentless that perception gets
So cordial but fictitious
Happiness inside an empty chest
I can't wait to watch the minutes change
And watch my dreams in fragments
Assemble yourself in the midst of the blank
And make this place your home
That mirror's glaring right back at you
You cannot sleep until you're through
If then comes the day you take my eyes with plans make them new
Then inanimate I'll become for you
And return to feel
That I'm so ideal
I can't wait to watch the clockwork break
Just as the dawn in winter
Slowly the world falls asleep with my dreams
'Cause I don't want to wake
Find a shooting star burn bright and
Make it melt the dark of the void
Discover what my purpose is and
Find the parts of me you destroyed
I'm titanium-built
I'm lace, I'm silk
No part of me was ever meant to
Feel this faded
The unforgiving laziness of
Mine will end up praising us
And rays of light are gracing us
'Cause the future will be coming back to you
Left no part of it to live, to see, to do
