Screwdriver

lyrics

SCREWDRIVER
(orange juice, vodka)

Plug me in, turn me on
Exhaling the ones and the zeros
Process more, notice less
Waiting for binary heroes

Power surge; electrical dance
Sparking between the widening gaps of my soul

[chorus]
Terminal rage, batteries drained
Caught in a vice.
Screws driven tight, dying inside,
Just let me be.

Pick at my error codes
Everything works on the surface
Brand new patch, line by line
Make out a new sense of purpose

Grind my teeth; wires crossed
Moving parts pressed up tight against the screen

I lose control under this spell
Short out inside my digital shell

I accept the routine
The network losing my mind
Take my time, my planned decay
Connection slipping away

Wireless glee, touchscreen embrace, cold metal shine!
Virtual spite, joints locking up, death by design.

Terminal rage, batteries drained, caught in a vice.
Screws driven tight, dying inside, just let me be.
