Artificial World

Centuries passing in the blink of an eye
Minds caught in a cross-fire of confusion
Mixed emotions as you realise
That you’re something less than human
We search the heavens for signs of life
When there’s abundance on earth
A common problem, or lack of sight?
A new beginning, rebirth… in this…
Artificial world
Artificial life, artificial life
Superficial face
Molded by a knife, molded by a knife
Kids don’t play with each other anymore
They live their lives in seclusion
Interaction to inactivity
Have you reached the same conclusion?
I talk to my friend on the other side of the world
Don’t even know my neighbour
I interface and communicate all day
With cybernetic zombies in this…
Artificial world
Artificial life, artificial life
Superficial face
Molded by a knife, molded by a knife
Face to face is not what it once was
Have we lost much more than we’ve gained
In this artificial world?
From strength to strength or insecurity’s chains
Two steps forward, three steps back
In this artificial world. (x3)
You know that I had to remodel that patient’s entire face?
And it was strenuous and very complicated
Plastic surgery at times seems to me to be… very complicated…
Artificial world
Artificial life, artificial life
Superficial face
Molded by a knife, molded by a knife (x2)
