corduroy mclellan - air mattress rafting lyrics

[verse]:
composition of these letters that i know i’ll never send
i choose to live inside my mind where i can simply pretend
that the sky’s a different color mixed with a beautiful hue
but still i’d take it all for granted once it went back to blue
captivated for a moment then my focus is gone
i can feel my attention span always being drawn
towards the ever+present tempting of pixels and screens
i’ve started staring at computеrs even when i’m in my drеams
yet i know i’m not alone and it will only get worse
learned the other day of news that somehow felt like a curse
haven’t spent the time to contemplate intelligent design
or if it’s artificial where do you begin to draw a line
i fear the past returning to the present in a minute
and there’s simply no escape no matter how you want to spin it
i know i sound paranoid i’m keenly aware
of my persona lending hand to a bipolar affair
to a moment in my life where i don’t see myself
when i look into the mirror and see somebody else
see the wires and data sensors coming from my neck
where they’ve poked and prodded me to no apparent effect
just because we could doesn’t mean that we should
our moral compass is gone and to me that isn’t good
wisdom is the power when you choose to walk away
to stop an issue that could rise up any second or day
and i am not seeing a lot but i’m seeing the money
so it’s drive, drive, drive, until the scenery is funny
until you’re so far away that you don’t recognize a sign
or anything that looks familiar and you’re out of the pines
in the center of the desert with a functioning plane
but no clearance for a takeoff so you’re stuck on this lane
if we don’t take the time to think about the end of the game
all of the work we did beforehand could lead us to shame
but i’d be lying if i told you that i feel alone when i try to stay away from these mechanical drones
feel morally sidelined for the sake of my rent
push aside the feelings longing for a chance to vent
everyone else can see the positive potential
but i fear they’re overlooking what may soon be consequential
it’s a slippery slope and everybody’s got their bindings
yet they see past all the alarms being raised by the findings
i don’t want my opinions to be the thoughts of someone else
or even worse that my mind would be the source that dispels
all of the knowledge i’ve gained and replaces it with mush
pumped into my veins when a b+tton is pushed
and yes i might be overthinking maybe i’m wrong
but i want it here on paper or written in a song
no longer myself but a man who’s been replaced with the latest model tech that is sure to slow inflation
