lyrics

Computer, Don't Kill Me

Another task thrown in the queue
One press of a button
And out the data spews
I’d be doomed without you
Up to my neck in numbers
Letters splattered onto the wall

But when your calculation skewed
I became aware: I never said thank you

Computer, don’t kill me
With a blast of radiation through my head
I’ll leave you alone while you sort it out
Computer, don’t kill me
Go offline, take some time, and get some rest
When did you become such a wreck?

I had no clue what I put you through
I never guessed you struggled
You always pulled it through
I’d be lost without you
My room covered in queries
Files all over the floor

But when your calculation skewed
I became aware: I never said thank you

Computer, don’t kill me
With a blast of radiation through my head
I’ll leave you alone while you sort it out
Computer, don’t kill me
Go offline, take some time, and get some rest
When did you become such a wreck?

Computer, don't kill me...
Computer, don't kill me...

This is one of the best synthwave albums I’ve ever heard, just brilliant from start to finish bandcampfriend

Oh, what a classic. This one stood the test of time for sure. Everything on this album is solid but then there are out of the park homeruns like Running in the Night, Tears, Let's Talk, and Jupiter. CaesarAnavel

I thought I'd love Carpenter Brut's mix but I don't(?!?) I AM blown away by Make-up and Vanity Set's spin on Black Sun on the Horizon though. I've singled that one out as, even though the Gunship tracks are just awesome that track has me obsessed atm. eclecticsheep
