[Verse 1]
Evolution's tunnel from which there’s no end
Mirror upon mirror, twist, turn and bend
Down the endless hallway of so many doors
Countless lives to choose and to explore
[Pre-Chorus]
Is the key to our survival post-human technology?
Do we trust full immersion virtual reality?
Vinge's 2030
The 6th Paradigm
When circuitry augments the mind
It's a double-edged sword
The Grand Singularity and A.l. autonomy
Building the superman
Building the superman
[Chorus]
Minus the man
Minus the man
At any cost perpetuate the post-human lifespan
[Verse 2]
Down the endless hallway of so many mirrors
Rеflecting no years, redirеcting the tears
Through every door a new road upon which to dream
To master each pathway, all, eventually
[Bridge]
Oh, will this bring us closer to destiny?
Or are we withdrawing further into fantasy?
[Pre-Chorus]
Is the key to our survival post-human technology?
Do we trust full immersion virtual reality?
Vinge’s 2030
The 6th Paradigm
When circuitry augments the mind
It's a double-edged sword
The Grand Singularity and A.I. autonomy
Building the superman
Building the superman
[Chorus]
Minus the man
Minus the man
Will the survival equation command that it minus the man?
[Outro]
Building the superman
Minus the man
Evolution's tunnel from which there’s no end
Mirror upon mirror, twist, turn and bend
Down the endless hallway of so many doors
Countless lives to choose and to explore
[Pre-Chorus]
Is the key to our survival post-human technology?
Do we trust full immersion virtual reality?
