Keep staring at a screen
As you walk among the crowd
Nothing seems remarkable to you
Entertaining diversions
Your time is never free
No shortage of new things to view
Step away
And look at the world
What you are not allowed to see
Now has taken its toll
Abide by a basic principle
Just live and let live
In practice it's not what you are thinking
Influenced everyday
By technological means
Your own personality is shrinking
Step away
And look at the world
What you are not allowed to see
Now has taken its toll
Between zero and one
Life becomes a number
Between zero and one
Welcome to a future so bleak
An illusion of control
Great power at your disposal
Create at will and reach perfection
But when the mirror shatters
The image is crumbling down
No one likes their own reflection
Step away
And look at the world
What you are not allowed to see
Now has taken its toll
Between zero and one
Life becomes a number
Between zero and one
Welcome to a future so bleak
Between zero and one
Without emotions we sunder
Between zero and one
In digital silence we speak
Between zero and one
Life becomes a number
Between zero and one
Welcome to a future so bleak
