about

We are individuals, but our individuality is crafted through the tension created by the not-self, our reflections and refractions through those around us. We search for balance in a digital abyss, yearning for camaraderie in the face of self-imposed extinction.

Create your own anthems, sing your own songs, and look to your friends when the world descends into madness.

lyrics

cell zero
I’m in the basement
you’re all my friends
and none of you
could ever have
a robotic replacement
and this
I’d like to tell ya
if a troll turned you into little dolls
well I’d never ever sell ya

for this and those acquainted
we all survive
nine to five
ten to eight
now please be patient
and while you’re waiting
watch a brief silent film
see the scene
where your heart stops racing

it could be nice to be alone
at the bottom of the world
I’m halfway there
and it sure does feel it
is it the making of the conversation
or the joy of a daytime isolation
at four in the morning
on your favorite station?

cell zero
I’m now a planet
trying to kill
every living thing on it
burning and flooding and scrubbing these parasites
what could compare with the sapiens’ appetites?

enough is enough
for the average buff
and buffs are a thing
that are now common stuff
nothing is precious
and nothing is rare
nothing is owed
it’s for all us to share

don’t want your energy
don’t give me energy
keep that dark crystal far from me
if you stay inside too long
nothing else could come out wrong
there’s nothing coming out at all

if you’d like to save my life
just make me laugh
once in a while
