Insomnia taunts me, i turned on my t.v.;
rapt in the arms of a galaxy spiral.
heard a sea-shell hid it's secret as well.
this nexus is key to our planets survival.
One precious moment it all became clear;
brain-cloud-haze lifted by euphoric fear.
to the unknown my mind's eye directed;
beheld every mote in creation connected.
No more hereafter, eugenics our master;
sectarist lecture mere witless hubris.
humanity's blunder was ceasing to wonder;
why are we here; what's the meaning of this?
Virtual church without actual sages;
souls under scrutiny, rats in glass cages.
enigmas deciphered are no longer needed;
lost words of warning unheard or unheeded.
[chorus:]
we're all hooked-up to the vast karmic internet;
each of our souls on the end of its fibre.
one sacred fact that we can't download yet;
the truth is we share the same service-provider.
One precious moment it all became clear;
brain-cloud-haze lifted by euphoric fear.
to the unknown my mind's eye directed;
beheld every mote in creation connected.
[chorus:]
we're all hooked-up to the vast karmic internet;
each of our souls on the end of its fibre.
one sacred fact that we can't download yet;
the truth is we share the same service-provider.
The atheist plays whilst the orthodox pray.
fundamentalists freak-out as humanists scoff.
a headlong collision 'twixt science and religion;
there'll be hell to pay
when one day god logs-off.
