Synthetic Lies

Erase my mind with synthetic remedies
Injecting lies — discarding all my dreams
As I sit behind the curtain and the screens
Colors fill my eyes, proliferate realities
It’s of no consequence to me
Written rewritten rewritten
Written rewritten rewritten
Allegorical, architectural, anomaly
Ones and zeroes
Octets and masks
Hide the skies
A brilliant mind sitting behind
Synthetic lies
On these new paths
Deep inside my brain
All the charts and graphs
Can hardly explain
Like photographs
The memories remain
It’s of no consequence to me
Written rewritten rewritten
Written rewritten rewritten
Unbelievable inconceivable abnormality
Ones and zeroes
Octets and masks
Hide the skies
A brilliant mind sitting behind
Synthetic lies
A world unfolding
Mankind beholding
Awakening from peaceful slumber
You realize you are just a number
