lyrics

Start all over
again and again.
Scroll for dopamine.
Glitch—start over (anew/a new)
jamais vu.

Your failings
come easily
like morning fading
into evening.
Will your new sayings
become clichéd
like fungus preying
on the fallen dead?

When you’re all in
you’ll be falling.
Hear it calling?
Will you fall in?

Now you’re older,
but here again.
Refresh—memory clean.
How many times have you
had jamais vu?

You’re fading
beyond the edge
of a signal failing
as you play pretend,
that is, evade and
say it’s all a game.
Well why do players
need to ease some pain?

When you’re all in
you’ll be falling.
Hear it calling?
Will you fall in?

[Hit REFRESH refill your head,
refresh, reset, forget. You’re mechanical
into your death. Refresh again.
You’re fed on Internet and you’re falling
in again. Refill your head.
Refresh, reset, forget. You’re mechanical
into your death. Refresh again
as if you’ve never played before.]

Say you won’t replay for long.
Say you won't replay for long.
Say you won't replay for long.
Say you won't replay for long.
Say you never never ever will.
Say you never ever will.
