Creed Of The Modem Generation MAG
eyes glazed reflecting the glares
the world stares blankly at the flashing screen
image means more, substance less
comfort island in a sea of distress
hearts connect at 28.8 kbps
and nothing is what it seems
teenage hormones rage
while profiles are staged
the married are single
the old young once more
the moment passes
as the oblivious masses
hit superstardom
in the message board kingdom
dependency modem
opens the door
two lonely kids swoon
in a private chat room
falling into the cyber high
ignoring the hypin'
luvin'
typin'
hearing a collective sigh
of a wired generation
suffering virtual extinction
never making the distinction
of the life reality, the actuality
and the online life
nonexistent
reach out, break out
of the emotional blackout
reality disillusions
as the revolution of dilution is here
isolation, desolation
temptation
our generation
