Twelve days, eleven nites
I connected dots with all these lines
But there’s no image in front of my eyes
No palm tree no isle
I pulled the words out of my throat
My mouth is moving but I am stuck
Passivity is my aim in life
The best coping strategy to survive
I love my desk, I love these files
The stomach pain on Sunday nite
the way in the morning it gets worse
but money heals everything (don’t you know?)
Rent your body five days a week
Music’s playing but we’re out of synch
“Annihilation” is the mantra we have to repeat
There’s no salvation if you don’t move your lips
I read all the labels on my clothes
And solved all the Crosswords I could find
there’s no compensation for stolen time
nothing we can own, nothing we can buy
so take a seat and have a coffee
it’s way tastier when you have no worries
No more forms to fill out
this is the future, shout It out Loud!
Throw away your pen
disconnect your mouse
chase your fears away and
Let the clacking of computer keys
put you to sleep
Rent your body five days a week
Music’s playing but we’re out of synch
“Annihilation” is the mantra we have to repeat
There’s no salvation if you don’t move your lips
Move your lips

Everyday I see a man watching me from a screen
A man with my eyes, my nose, my skin
But he smiles and I don't
He's judging me, oh please no
Doppelgänger
Everyday I see a man watching me from a screen
He knows everything about me
My preferences, what I’ve searched
And he can’t forget what he’s learned
Doppelgänger
Long live the new flesh, long life to wires
no more nasty smells, no more receding hairline
Say Hi to the new flesh, Say Hi to Life
No more bad thoughts, no more need to hide
Everyday I see a man watching me through a screen
A man with my ears, my mouth, my teeth
But I’m smiling and He’s not
He's dying and I will not
Doppelgänger

We Were Never Being Boring Collective Italy
We want music to never turn into something boring for us. It would mean that we have become boring. Because music does not die with mp3′s or copyright: boredom is what brings it down, when it becomes a habit. All we need is a small do-it-yourself collective, as tiny as a simple smile. ... more
