Electricity

Electricity is killing me and I can hardly sleep

I look into my phone, feel so alone and can't even see

A future where anything is working out for me

So before they plug me into machines, I might as well have a drink

I'm addicted to content and alcohol

But I still can't feel anything at all

I hope one day I see the fall of electricity

Please don't resuscitate me

Just leave me fucking be

Why is it always the ones you care for who hurt you the most?

Why is it so important to watch TV or be able to make toast?

Most days I feel like I am living as a ghost

But they're not scared of me because I make such a good host

For the future they're crafting: the end of free will

If I had my way everyone of us would still

Be foraging for berries and focused on our next kill

But we're living in end times and it's such a thrill

To be addicted to content and alcohol

But still unable to feel anything at all

One day we'll see the fall of electricity

Please, God, don't reincarnate me

Just let me fucking leave

Or fill me with electricity

Maybe then I'll finally be free
