lyrics

Check the wires on the simulation
To see if you’re online, or out tonight
About twice a week i check in on my
Personal torture device

IT’s a miracle i've managed to stay alive
Nothings connected but phone lines
Wish to see you in blue light
I look up and you’re offline

I'm away
Or am I lonely
Whisper your name
The space between phone lines

Wish I could see you on my cell phone
Instead of meeting AVIs
send the message across the tight band
And we can keep it private

Heard your message on the fiber optics
A thousand miles from rural Oregon
"I'm resting well, and living alone
But I'd rather not live here in my basement"

I'm away
Only alone when were online
Meet at my place
After we've cut the phone lines
