The Heavy Zoom Lyrics

I can't relate to the modern world

All the Kool-Aid and the plastic pearls

An iPad is not a parent, the price is apparent

Devices are dividing lines

I spend my time trying to spread the word

In 13 years it could be unfurled

With AGI on the horizon, the Midnight Sun rising

We'll be hiding from the cold machines

It's the heavy zoom

That leaves no room to see the price we pay

Disconnect, loneliness

Metamodern way

It's all a waste

I can't relate to the central lie

That love can be replaced by a thousand Likes

The human touch is precious, you'll feel it when you're desperate

On your deathbed and no one arrives

Validated late-stage narcissists

The nihilistic death of a life well-spent

All this algorithmic worship

Will end in our inertia

Distracted by short-term desires

It's the heavy zoom

That leaves no room to see the price we pay

Disconnect and loneliness

That's the modern way

Don't you miss the summer skies? Butterflies?

When all we leave is waste

Life inside the heavy zoom

Leaves no room for change

It's such a waste

It's such a waste
