Lyrics:
Click click click
Fingers in your mouth
Numbers going South
Is what it’s all about
451 gonna lick the floor
Gotta be adored
S’what you do it for
Click click click
Kindle and the fire
Now your card expires
Throw it on the pyre
451 snarling on the floor
Gotta be adored
Gotta be adored
It’s always on
That thing is always on
Everything seen through a mirror
Can’t touch reality
Why would you want to be
flesh it decays so easily
Pixel vitality is immortality
Constant stream
you’ve got eyes to feed
Give ‘em what they need
‘till your fingers bleed
Fickle glory’s hard to quit
Now you’ve made a life of it
Going too fast to get off
Can’t tell them you’ve had enough
It’s always on
That thing is always on
Always hungry
Always watching
When you awake from this
you’re gonna miss the life
that you have lost
Now something’s burning
Always hungry
Always watching
When they collate all this
they’ll make a second you from chicken boxes
and dog meat
Click click click
Numbers in your mouth
Fingers going South
S’what it’s all about
451 gonna lick the floor
Gotta be adored
S’what you do it for
Everything seen through a mirror
Can’t touch reality
Why would you want to be
Fickle glory’s hard to quit
Now you’ve made a life of it
Going too fast to get off
Can’t tell them you’ve had enough
It’s always on
That thing is always on
Death to the future
Death to the past
Things worth having aren’t meant to last
Death the future
Death to the past
Always hungry
Always watching
When you awake from this
you’re gonna miss the life
that you have lost
Now something’s burning
Always hungry
Always watching
When they collate all this
they’ll make a second you from chicken boxes
and dog meat

Listened to this, loved the groove. Came back half an hour later, processing the lyrics this time.
That mix of sexy and foreboding in the lyrics is really powerful! (And mirrors the instrumentation perfectly, of course!) It's making me think both about widespread surveillance, but also about societal expectations and the pressure to dress-up.

Thanks so much for saying so Kaitlynn, it's incredibly rewarding to know the stuff we put in comes through! So glad it made you listen again and it gave you more 👍
