Chips Bring a Party Down

I kept the light on, so I could see when the rain came

Set all my times, there's no chance for forgetting

I've got my alarm to wake me up, 

Let my calendar set me up, 

But I was honestly upset when I saw

The sun was coming out today.



Talking is through waves and pieces

My life is projected on a screen

Contact and gestures are secondary communication

All my senses are fleeting

I'll need a gouge to know my heart is still beating

Keep me safe in this box of steel, 

Oh but that shivering spine is so real



I feel so disconnected

Where did that feeling go

My arms, my feet, my voice

Have lost control
