Anti-phase

From the innocent endeavour
To the all encompassing beast
Towards the grip of time and leisure
Engulfing grotesque cruelsome treat

Their offer is convenience
It's speed and access to many more things
When missing out removes a target from the world
When silence in transmission means defeat

By steadily increasing the service levels for governmental intervention
Creating more idiocracy from within
With enforcement

In this very moment your life is quite easy
You got work and shelter and something nice to eat
But at this next very easy moment
You realize there is something not quite right

The hard dependence on all these giant vendors
The neverending rise of living cost
The hours spent productive
For other people's pockets are gone

The time that's left we are quite addicted
To our neverending news feeds
The hard dependence on these few giant vendors
Is just the same as it always has been

We've got no time left to shape reality
Our human art is slowly decaying
As the machines also take over
This nieche of expression of our own ideas

They killed our markets and our independence
Our ancestors were full of sloth and greed
Convenience became normality
And in the end they were all dependent

Back to future
Where shall we go
Use time to change this place
Into exploration
And neverending peace
