Rare Americans
The Machine
My whole life is on the internet
I know all these people but
But we have never met
This is life inside of the machine
Give me another hit of dopamine
My whole life is on the internet
I know all these people but
But we have never met
This is life inside of the machine
Give me another hit of dopamine
Chase dopamine, like I'm a dope fiend
Addicted to the system
But never been a part of the mainstream
Too gritty for tik tok, no time for flip flops
Don't trust cancel cops
Bombardment non stop
Welcome to attention economy
A world full of wanna-bees
With a variety of anxieties
What is a society, drunk on notoriety?
I can't even imagine technological sobriety
My whole life is on the internet
I tell them all my secrets but
We have never met
I'm sick of living life in the machine
Give me another hit of dopamine
I tell ya I would not be fuming
If I never saw another human
Being, me and my computer and my room and I'm good!
Just like me, a million other stans
Final fantasy land, jerk it non stop, only fans
Oh yes you can, pro-gram, the single young man
Plan how it ends, zero real friends
The machine is I! And I am he!
And you know what man? We're both happy
Ok ok ok ok?
My whole life is on the internet
We've become a family
We have never met
This is life inside the machine
Give me another hit of dopamine
