This song is about the horrors of internet use in our modern age.
lyrics
Cyber Space
Oh Cyber space, cyber space
I found your face in cyber space
I love your face I love your face
I’m looking for a girl to marry me, oh yeah!
You go to my school
I never talk to you
You probably don’t think I’m very cool
But I’m in LOVE WITH YOU!
I swear its true!
I see you every night in my bedroom … oh yeah … ;)
*grunts *
I fucked a girl on the internet
I felt a certain disconnect
I could steal your innocence
On the internet
I look at you
I look at you
I look at you
I look at you
They say there’s seven steps
To cope with death
On the internet
Five easy ways to forget a face
In cyber space
But I can’t learn to cope with death
And I can’t learn to forget a face
On the internet
On the internet
In cyber space
*grunts
No! YOUR FACE!
*Grunts
I killed a girl on the internet
I felt the same old disconnect
.. I felt nothing
Oh cyber space
Yeah cyber space
I found your face in cyber space
It’s a perfect world
It’s a perfect place
It’s the digital realm that I can’t escape
I had a bad day
A pretty bad day
I went home and
Plugged that shit into my veins
Cyber space
yeah cyber space
So picture perfect
Crop & save it!
(on the internet)
Are you in love,
Just like me,
Head over heels
For the internet queen?
You better watch yourself
Or you’ll end up being
Nothing better than a cyber fiend
Look out children
(laughter)
I go to bed cause I feel tired,
But you keep me up all night
Blue reflection, got no direction
I watch your life
But you’re not watching mine
Why won’t you watch my life?
Out of the corner of your eye..?
Why won’t you watch my life?
