(Safe in your silicon shell A cell in a server, silent observer Staring at solitude eyes Green and unblinking, the thought before thinking) PanopticonAnalog heart flat-lined and digitized A shell for a skull and a body to commodify Under the light, we survive inside this between But we lose ourselves and retreat to screens, retreat to screens, retreat to screens(Our name is legion) We outnumber the stars We have come to absolve you) They see all, but we see oneShut down the system, burn away the veil What waits? A face behind a face behind a face Reverse the network, burn away the veil And you'll find a face behind a face behind a faceAll the lies, we’re pulling cables from our spinesThe culture is charged, amplified, then polarized But our nerves are dulled and our souls lobotomized We sleep with pixels in a dream machine But we lose ourselves and retreat to screens, retreat to screens, retreat to screensShut down the system, burn away the veil What waits? A face behind a face behind a face Reverse the network, burn away the veil And you'll find a face behind a face behind a faceUnto us, a program is born Holy virus, taker of the Earth
