lyrics

Veni vidi viscous liquid
Dripping from the fountain vicious
Do you wanna
Piranha fodder
You’re no good
I know you’re gonna
Maybe the algae will save us
Data centers erase us
Praying to the algorithms
To un-do this deep de-vision

We were singing to the sound
But how could we have known
It went straight to a server farm in North Des Moines
Long remember the death of songs that we forgot to mourn
Long remember the death of songs that we forgot to mourn

Dying a slow death
In a hotel lobby
Trying vainly to think on something fondly
In my head there’s four walls huddled tight
In a meadow hiding from a gentle light
In the back there’s a stage I can see the picture
Microphone waiting, dripping cosmic scripture
The tubes all humming, crowd comes running
Sweating, swaying, scuffing shoes
Drinking deeply the communion
Searching for something true

We were singing to the sound
But how could we have known
It went straight to a server farm in North Des Moines
Long remember the death of songs that we forgot to mourn
Long remember the death of songs that we forgot to mourn

Complicated and serene I’m breathing deep
Layers pile and topple, remain unseen
Practicing fully a simple act of being
We’ll invent the constellations
And watch them gleam

We’ll remember every song that we have ever known
Singing to the sound and buzzing in the light that’s shown
We’ll remember every song that we have ever known
Singing to the sound and buzzing in the light that’s shown
We’ll remember every song that we have ever known
Singing to the sound and buzzing in the light that’s shown
