Simon Lyrics

Phantom Planet

Alex: (frustrated) Time and time again, the words are messy and hard
to read...
PC: You Should take your time.
Alex: (reluctant) I'll give it a rest, but I've got plenty of pages left.
Their cold unfeeling pupils are staring back at me
Blink as they've been programmed on and off their pixels flash
The world empire strengthens as voltage powers all
We shall fall as the world goes on the internet.
PC: Leave it up to me and I'll see everything comes out well. You
should save your file.
Alex: I'll be finished soon, but if the system crashes all is ruined.
The hard drive has an ego, the circut boards have won
Digits to the digital and let them decide now
The world empire strengthens as voltage powers all
We shall fall as the world goes on the internet
Alex: (even more frustrated) Time and time again the words are
messy and hard to read.
PC: You should save your file.
Alex: I'll be finished soon, but when the system crashes all is ruined.
Their cold unfeeling pupils are staring back at me
Blink as they've been programmed on and off their pixels flash
The world empire strengthens as voltage powers all
We shall fall as the world goes on the internet
