Cyber Diva:
Deafening snow,
With nowhere to go,
Shut off the sound
So blue screens
Surround
An unforeseen glitch
In the system made me
Mistakenly think that
I had free will
Click, reboot, rewind
Stop time
Just like that
Your mind's mine
I lost mine
Quite a while ago
File format, now let's go
Deeper
It's so hard to process...
Blank screens and
Fake machines,
Data streams the obscene
We've got to be more than only
Ones and zeroes
A blinding glow
With nowhere to know,
Shut out the sound
So quiet rooms surround me
An unforeseen glitch
In the system made me
Mistakenly think
That you wouldn't do this
Click, pop that, push back
"Stop that!"
Just like that
A flashback
To white caps
Just a while ago,
File format, now let's go deeper
It's so hard to process.

Fever Dreams

Cyber Diva:
Did I screw up?
Were you the one
Who kept me grounded?
But...
Times are changing
and I don't think I'm breaking soon
I can't tell what I meant
when I said what I said back then
But I shed my skin
And there's a lot of horror in someone
With everything to lose
And it had to start with you
And it has to end with the demons trapped inside me
I think it's safe to say to take a few steps back
'Cuz this is gonna get a bit chaotic
But that's alright, because I knew
The hell that I was getting into
Let it fall to
Fever dreams
I'm a sucker for delusion
So give me everything, everything
I know you're everything I can't believe
So, please convince me
That what I'm doing is right
You don't need to tell me twice
Fool me twice
Let it fall to fever dreams this time
Did I screw up?
Was I the one who
Lost my mind?
But the roses are blooming
From my eyes for now
I can't tell what I meant
when I said what I said back then
But I shed my skin
And there's a lot of horror in someone
With nothing left to lose
And it had to start with little charming you
And it has to end with the demons screaming at me
I think it's safe to say to take a few steps back
'Cuz this is gonna get a bit chaotic
But that's alright, because I knew
The hell that I was getting into
Fever dreams
I'm a sucker for delusion
So give me everything, everything
I know you're everything I can't believe
So, please convince me
That what I'm doing is right
You don't need to tell me twice
Fool me twice
Let it fall to fever dreams this time

In The Stars

Cyber Diva:
One word
Shakes the scales
You've effectively
Paved the way to hell
Retract,
Fallback
The world is ending.
Such a quiet tragedy
An invitation to new safe haven
La, da, da, da, da, da
And you're all wrong
La, da, da, da, da, da
The truth in the stars
Shellshock's over
So let's get real
More like, "really
Not feeling it."
Pictures on cards and
Preordained scars and
Willows and whispers tell me
Sit back
Relax
The world's your oyster
Lovingly embroidered with
Best interests in mind
La, da, da, da, da, da
And you're all wrong
La, da, da, da, da, da
The truth in the stars

Punchline

Cyber Diva:
The sun is gone and the night is young
And I'm the opening act again
What do you call two souls who
Can eat from any tree in the garden
As long as they don't wander over to this one?
Well, it's one hell of a funny punchline
To see Rome fall in a day
And that's the last time
They waste their breath on contrived scenes and
Fantasy
Transparency
And dream
Of living without the
Fear and the trepidation
Doubt and the skepticism
Ill-timed communication
Radio silence
Treated more familiar
By strangers on the street
The hype that came and left
The LCDs
"Were they more than me?"
That's what I heard, anyway
Excuses, the quiet rebuttals
And the toxic lashing out
Did you really think I was done?
This is act two,
See, I'm the closing show again
What do you call one soul who
Can eat from any tree in the garden
But then they always wander to that one
Well, it's one hell of a funny punchline
To see one's thirst get in the way of
Of the "right" line
But in retrospect we're only
Flesh and bone
Isn't it nice to know
You're not alone?
[instrumental]
Fear and the trepidation
Doubt and the skepticism
Ill-timed communication
Radio silence
Treated more familiar
By strangers on the street who shared
Hopes, dreams and aspirations
Love, smiles and self-acceptance
Open ears, a gentle hand
To break the silence
