Deactivate

Deactivate - The Antlers

Lyrics by：Peter Silberman

Composed by：Peter Silberman/Michael Lerner

While I was scrolling shocked and bored

I came upon the news of your departure

From this ailing place from which you chose 'deactivate'

While out my door and down the street:

Deflated bodies empty meat

A running dog on trailing leash was free to roam but not released

From gravity and malady and sheer corporeality

Anatomy in disrepair catastrophe in open-air

They're telling me: "ascend the stair: eternity in betaware"

While you're awaiting your result allow me to present an ultimatum:

Either save this place or opt out and deactivate

Before your body's obsolete abandon ship reserve your seat

But if you transfer incomplete do not refresh do not delete

Your treasury of memory your tendency for reverie

Diffuse your being everywhere: a remedy beyond compare

Be not afraid do not be scared to swiftly cross that thoroughfare

O take my hand I'll take you there: eternity in betaware
