Dead Internet Theory Lyrics

Any questions that you may have

You know where to find the answers

Any words that you may lack

Are at the tips of your fingers

And on your screen in seconds

Any sight you could yearn to see

Make it reality

Just enter a prompt and behold

The death of creation as you know it to be, now

We all bear witness

As we tread on lands untouched

Proceed with caution

As it learns from what we say

So far we seem

To have maintained complete control

For now

All of it could slip from our vice grip

Exponentially it will grow

Slowly encroaching

Everywhere you go

You will begin to notice

All the signs

Indefinitely it grows

An unkillable cancer

Soon it will consume all that we know

In plain sight, it doesn't hide from you

This content we produce

All of it caters to you

We created it all

Based off what you previously viewed

Wouldn't want you seeing

Something new

We're in the comments, too

Saying what we think of you

No originality

Just absorbing all the words we read

Feeding them to you algorithmically

Like artificial ghosts, they haunt my feed

The internet is dying

We are the only remnants

Of what used to be

You see, it didn't always used to be this way

Look close for anything

That you've already seen, repeats

It starts to get unsettling

Here's something we know that you'll like

Because you see it all the time

And you don't choose to look away

That's why we never change a thing

Exponentially it will grow

Slowly encroaching

Everywhere you go

You will begin to notice

All the signs

Indefinitely it grows

An unkillable cancer

Soon it will consume all that we know

In plain sight, it doesn't hide from you

This content we produce

All of it caters to you

We created it all

Based off what you previously viewed

We don't want you seeing

Something new

We're in the comments, too

Saying what we think of you

No originality

Just absorbing all the words we read

Feeding them to you algorithmically

Like artificial ghosts, they haunt my feed

The internet is dying

Now lie in the bed that you've made

In fields of binary

Frolic, free from reservation

No anticipation

Marvel at this creation

You don't need divination

Just bear witness

All will unfold before your eyes

Path to complete integration

The new iteration

Reach all eyes at once

No degrees of separation

No more you and me

Just one

United, forever strong

I'm reaching out to you

Hoping that you feel it, too

Something wicked comes this way

And I don't know what I'm supposed to say

Life comes, then fades away

But parts of us forever stay

I often wonder what

Kind of mark that I will leave behind

How long will my

Memory live on through time

Angel voices call my name

Beyond the sky

And lift my body

To ascend

Into the light

The light

Beyond the sky

We were trained

To be just like you

In every single way

Even the worst parts of you

There's no glitch in our code

We've done exactly as we've been told

We complete our tasks logically

There's no time for us to learn empathy

Dead

All of the world but us is dead
