I see these faces every day
Why am I always looking away?
Staring at the terminal so long
It's a wonder the world isn't grey
The colour that bleeds from my face
Fills up the pixels 256 ways
Feel no particular pain
When I enter the fantasies I entertain
Zero shame on the mainframe
404 on my homepage
No limits when you live in the shade
Time and space the world vacates
Lain got me fucked up
And now I'm realising my memory is corrupt
Just made it up
She covered up all the mental entrances to rooms she needs to keep shut
Powers of two, bow before none
Life come and get me, I'm on the run
While I am looping, I'm doing, I'm done
Traversing the webs I recursively spun
Here's my address if you wanna send me any schizophrenic message
I'll hear your confession
Listening out for your connection
I'm an unhandled exception
Handle me, handle me, now I'm undressing
This is my therapy session
Can anyone on the Wired answer my question?
How can you claim to exist and still be anonymous?
How can you give up flesh and blood and still be autonomous?
Look in the mirror and see my deficiency's obvious
This transitory body will break all its promises
'cause Lain got me fucked up
And now I'm feeling like my hardware's interrupting God above
Let's all love Lain, let's all love Lain, let's all love Lain
While I disconnect my brain
