Singularity

from Double Vision by Caius Hubris

lyrics

First we breathed the air
Then we learned to care
When we learned to see the future
We knew that you’d be there
Waiting like a dream
The internet of things
Was humming softly
Now it’s awfully
bursting at the seams

It’s not like we didn’t plan for this
It’s not like we didn’t have a plan for this
It’s not that you caught us off guard
It’s more like we didn’t want to play the card
We knew it would come to this
We knew that it would always come to this
It’s not that we weren’t so smart
We didn’t think it’d be so hard

First up the classic backlashes
Acting drastic with the passion of the masses
EMP and a trip to the past
Where people look up at the steel and glass and say
Look at these acts fantastic
Achieved by the feats of a placid past
The ancient regime wasn’t built to last
If it unleashed the beast of the atom blast, so
Add that to the ample list
Of reasons to read A Canticle for Leibowitz
We struck thee once too late and amiss
At the risk of our very existence

The system wasn’t fixed to fail safe
This is more than a slap in the face
This is the risk that we take
When Icarus shit is the root of the race
We recognize that we started the fight, so
This is a wish and a hope in the night
Forgiveness for the fathers of flight and
Mercy for the mothers of might

First you breathed the air
Then you learned to care
When you learned to see the future
You knew that I’d be there
When I hear you scream
I cannot feel a thing
Was humming softly
Now I’m awfully
Bursting at the seams
But I don’t breathe at all
I don’t care to fall
Tripping over
Nothing close to
Equal I could call
Your building in the way
An anthill I should say
I could save it
But what the point
I’m better anyway
