Milkypossum - DIGITAL UTOPIA

★ intro ★
In an age ruled by nostalgia, could you blame me for stagnating?
Why would i move forward when i can create my own?
My very own digital utopia

★ verse 1 ★
It's not escapism, i am safe, no need to call me
It's just a way for me to take it all and force myself to go back to a time where clear chrome plastic visions ruled my mind
And there were no worries, no, not for me, besides picking what game to play on tv
Got vhs, cassette, and dvd
Lick static off the edges of my screen

★ verse 2 ★
Does dwelling in the past really cause problems in thе present?
Will drowning in aesthеtics become my new anaesthetic?
Can i get through it my way, even when it gets unpleasant?
I'll bury myself in mp3s and png cosmetics
Does dwelling in the past really cause problems in the present?
Drowning in aesthetics become my new anaesthetic?
C-can i get through it my way, even when it gets unpleasant?
I-i'll bury myself in mp3s and png cosmetics

★ verse 3 ★
Slave to a memory of promised futures
Desperate to cry into digital sutures
Cradle myself in a binary web
Why play the game if we can't get ahead-head-head?
★ verse 4 ★
I'm always fucking lying, i'm gonna go insane
When will the present match the future in this fucking game?
I know i am pretending, it's always been the same
Seek shelter in this fucking life and i'm the one to blame

★ verse 5 ★
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, i'm okay with pretending
Shut it down, start it up, blinding lights, and i feel so hopeful when i am spending
All my time, all my thoughts, all my actions are bound to the circuit boards that have formed me
Keep it up, keep it loud, make it so i am in so deep i don't see the warnings
It's alright, it's al—, i-it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright— with pretending
Shut— down, start it up, blinding lights-lights-lights, so hopeful when i am spending
All my time, all my thoughts, all my actions are bound to the circuit boards that have formed me
Keep it up, keep it l—, make it so i am in so deep i don't see the warnings

All my time, all my thoughts, all my actions are bound to the circuit boards that have formed me
Keep it up, keep it loud, make it so i am in so deep i don't see the warnings
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, i'm okay with the pretending
Shut it down, start it up, blinding lights, and i feel— hope-hopeful l when i am spending
All my time, all my thoughts, all my actions are bound to the circuit boards that have formed me
Keep it up, keep it loud, make it so i am in so deep i don't see the warnings
