lyrics

They say to me it’s key to be yourself
Authenticity is king
Never seek to seem like someone else
But pretending’s irrelevant
Since I’ve seen the true, the real me:

I’m a teenage boy in the year 2345
Who’s playing on a simulation of my life
And kids in the future have it pretty alright
So none of my fears are real, I’m just beams of light
On his screen and it’s so freeing
To know that when my life feels static
(Game paused)
He’s probably just peeing
Teenage boy, play my life’s course
To escape out of yours
I’ve just got one question, of sorts:
Why’d’you make me so bad at sports?

When you think about it it makes sense
That our actions are all controlled
By a group of future adolescents
Sometimes I act like twelve year old
But you can’t blame me for peeing on the seat, it’s not my fault

It’s the teenage boy in the year 2345
Who’s making me aim very slightly to the right
In the toilet inside the VR synthesiser
Which his mumma gave his pop in 2329
I can see him, and he’s feeling
A bittersweet nostalgia for a period
That he’s never peed in
Teenage boy, make me dance through my life
Wish I could see what you look like
But from the dance moves you make me try
I would guess that you’re probably white

And does that teenage boy ever wonder if
I can feel his joy in me?
And does the teenage boy ever contemplate
The fact that there could be

Another teenage boy in the year 8345
Who’s playing out a simulation of his life
And that every time he moves, he is feeding the minds
Of the overlords who keep him all suspended in slime
I can see him, and he’s feeling
Their eighty meter tentacles which tickle him
To keep him from sleeping
Teenage boy, thank you for fighting
Through a true sacrifice and:
Living out your husk of a life
So that my one can be alright.

Found this through my poor Spotify trying desperately to find what I might like to listen to. Not at all my normal type of music but it actually made me stop and listen. Delightful from beginning to end. It's gone onto my DAP to become part of my normal rotation of music. vonvanna
