Vision One

Vision One - Röyksopp (Royksopp)

There was a time when all the shadows

Of these tall buildings

Would throw their cape

Around each corner of the grassy fields

And one by one each huge shade

Would color the green with black

Allowing changes that

We could not have foreseen

Everybody let us gaze upon

The world we've created

Let us rest our eyes upon

The great machine as we wave goodbye

Feel the evening breeze caress us

While the cities are dying

As we watch it fall into

A modern state a modern time

Remember when we'd hear

The distant sound of human life

A zillion noises whimper

As they travel through the sky

And one by one each new sound

Has faded away with time

Allowing changes that

We could not have foreseen

Everybody let us say goodbye

To all our notions

Cause it's not enough to say that

We're humane when we're left behind

It's too late to think that

We can worship human emotions

Cause we've already evolved into

Machines in our minds
