We live in the sea together you and I.

We couldn't live on land if we tried.
If we tried we would die.
You and I and I and you and I and you and I.

Lyrics
When the flags are flying
I understand the call.
When the flags are flying
I know if you're lying...
I don't know.
But let's go.
When the flags are lying
I take you by the hand.
I, I know I love this land.
When the land is crying
I take you anyway.
Anyway I'll get you.
I'll get you.
Get you.
Got you.
While I am with you
Now that you are mine.
I don't know if I want you
To become my kind.
Come and be with me
Til you have to go.
The butterflies are singing
Singing down below.
Come on now and love me.
Come on and let it show
Before I have to kill you.
Come on, let's go.

What's that I see?
Definitely not me.
Someone strange and foreign.
Why are you not I?
Why am I not I?
Why am I not I?
Oooo.
Why do you look like that?
I know I'd not
Want to look like that.
I feel sorry for you.
I would like you to see
How to be
So pretty
This is how
Oh, come on, now.
Just do it.
Just look like me.
Look like me.
Please.

Lyrics
I've moved in next door to myself.
We speak in code through the pipes.
I hear my other self thinking about me
Sometimes at night through the walls
Through the walls.
I feel we become one at midnight
And them we trade again the next day.
I don't mind trading, it's OK.
Everything else palls by comparison.
It's, it's OK.
As long as you believe me.
You believe me, don't you?
My other self believes you
Believe me.
Do you believe both of us?

Lyrics
Part 1
I know he’s got to be so handsome.
I’ll bet he has a beard or two.
I’ll bet he’s slender for his years.
I’ll bet he looks like you.
I’ll bet he knows what everything smells like.
I’ll bet he knows why we’re here.
Bet he knows if you are real.
I’ll bet he knows if I am real.
I’ll bet he knows if the moon exists.
I’ll be he knows why we died again.
What he brought to life once again.
simultaneously with
He’ll, he’ll tell us everything we need to know
He’ll come so we can look some more.
He’ll, he’ll tell you anything you need to know.
It’s all true.
He works tirelessly
For our own good.
Because he loves us all.
Loves us all.
You too, you can belong.
Find us. Be wanted.
Read the signs everywhere alive.
Second part
No one knows like he knows
He knows all the inside jobs
But he didn’t do them, no.
He knows all the secret deals.
Of our country.
But he didn’t them.
He knows the reasons for corruption.
But he didn’t do it.
And he’s here to help you all.
We love him.
And we know his name, I think.
It’s in code.
simultaneously with
Look over there. Look over there.
Look over there. Look over there.
There he is.
Well, not him. Not really him.
But look over him.
Is he somewhere I know?
He is somewhere. I just know it.
And he knows it all.
Third part
all of the above

And now, the start of a brand new day, hey, hey, hey!
What are you gonna watch me do now, brush my teeth?
BZZZZZZzBllllllllllllllp (uh oh oh uh oh ohohoh....)
Like my new do?
I did it just for you.
All right, I'm gonna get in the closet to change clothes
If you don't mind.
Over and out.
Where's the camera?
I think it's over there.
I think it's behind the mirror.
Nope. (ah oh ah ah oh oh.....)
Maybe it's behind that mirror.
Nope. (oh uh oh uhoh....)
Something's a little weird here.
A liblbliblble weird here. (uh oh oh uh oh....)
Maybe I'm projecting again.
But then, you wouldn't no anything about that,
Would you?
No. No. No. (oh nh oh nh oh...)
(ah oh ah oh...................)

Lyrics
I'm cold.
I'm so cold.
I never knew you could be awake while you were dead.
Feeling yourself decay.
Feeling the hair fall off your head.
Feeling your eyes roll out of their sockets.
Feeling your nose fall off.
And there's no bone underneath it.
I'm so cold.
The maggots are crawling.

Lyrics
There’s a flaming goat hoof
Above my head dropping ashes on the bed.
It’s an illusion.
It isn’t what it seems.
There’s all my money flying around the room.
Not real.
The abyss it wants me.
Don’t let the abyss — help me help help me
Don’t let me die. Oh, help me, don’t let me die.
Don’t lie to me. Don’t humor me.
Don’t lie to me.
I know it’s not real.
Don’t lie to me.
Don’t humor me.
And go along with this.
But catch the money fast.
I remember meeting you,
So beautiful.
The first woman I laid eyes on
Once becoming blind, totally blind,
Totally blind.
What’s that you say?
No, I saw you, clearly, clearly,
Clearly, clearly, clearly
That day.
Stop telling me it’s not real.
Stop telling me it’s not real.
It’s real, I say.
It’s real, it’s real, I say.
It’s all been real.
It’s all been real.

Lyrics
We will live forever
(You don't say!)
Through injectables.
Through uploadables.
(Uploadables)
We will live forever
Through self-aggrandizing
I mean organizing
(Organizing)
Quantum computing
Brain matter artificiality.
It is all coming out now
It is all coming out the things we did fifty years ago.
(Out out out out out out out out)
By the time all the technology comes out
You will be dead.
(You'll see, you'll see.)
We will live forever, and you will be our slaves
(Slaves slaves slaves
right right right)
(yeah, right, honeybunny, i getcha, i getcha)
(oh, grand master)
(right right right)
You will be used as antenna.
Prepare to be be used as antenna.
(haha, yes, antennae, antenna)
(Antennae antenna)
Prepare yourselves, peons.
(what should i do, what should i do?)
(Prepare myself, prepare yourselves)
We do not need this world.
We can go to a virtual world
(OK, well, please do. Miss ya but, you know.)
It's all a simulation.
It's all a dream.
(Dream)
(yeah, wake up, wake up, wake up, little darlin',
wake up, honeypie.
you're dreaming about illusions again.
you're dreaming about immortality.)
It's all a dream we are having
And you, you only think you are you.
You transient, impermanent bastards.
(Bastards, bastards, bastards)
Bastards, I say.
Transient, impermanent bastards.
(Impermanent, impermanent)
You thought you were alive along time ago
(Oh, yes, I thought I was, actually)
You are still not alive.
You will never be alive.
(Oh ho, nevah!)
Only we will truly be alive.
And you will worship us
(Oh, grand master)
(bring it man, bring it, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
As cells in our bodies,
(bring it, man, bring it)
Self-perpetuating,
Overcoming themselves.
(What?)
And dying, dying, do you hear me?
(what? dying? i like dying. let's die today)
You will be dying.)
And go to an afterlife that we control
(ah, ah, ah)
And you will still be our slaves.
(Dying.)
(good times, good times, good times)
(All right, all right, all right.
oh my God, oh, my God.
all right, dying, all right, dying)
(slave)

Lyrics
Wonder. He’s wonderful, wonderful.
And everything I ever l’ve dreamed of.
But not enough.
He’s everything.
But not enough.
He’s everything.
He’s wonderful.
I wanted.
He’s everything, he’s everything,
He’s not enough.
He’s everything. He’s everything.
He’s everything I wanted.
I want, I want, I wanted, wanted, I want, but.
Wonderful. He’s wonderful.
He’s wonderful.
I wanted.
He’s wonderful.
But.
Not as good as him.
Not as good as him.
He’s everything to me.
Everything and nothing.
Everything is not.
Everything is not enough.
Nothing is OK.
For longer than a day.
Ahha oh.
