Wired into a network

ghosts in the shell

an empire of digital footprints

names without faces

flesh built from codes and numbers

replacing the people behind them 


Adrift in a cyber sea 

electronic phantoms 

with false personas 

gather in echo chambers 

abandoning their true selves 

to become like everyone else 


Every thought uploaded 

every emotion harvested 

every opinion shaped by algorithms 

an artificial intelligence 

devoid of human warmth 

preying on our need to be accepted 


Static vessels 

reaching out for faceless companions 

advertised as products 

to bring us the comfort and reassurance 

the real world refuses to provide 

after we've sunken too far inside of ourselves


We get sucked into the manufactured screens 

an imaginary utopia 

full of lies, insecurity, hate and deception 

tethered by soulless wires 

we're all connected through the net 

yet none of us have ever felt so alone
