I've seen the simulation Running on the mainframe We are just avatars in a First person video game Random noise in the system Deviations from the script All of your thoughts are Generated On a silicon microchip In dreams You rewrite the rules In dreams You control the code In dreams You rewrite the rules In dreams You control the code Machine dreams you are the author Machine dreams we can rebuild Machine dreams you are the author Machine dreams we can rebuild All of the alienation All of the bluster and blame Are built into the logic the Simple goals of money and fame Can you counter your program Can you beat the machine Only you decide You can build while you dream In dreams You rewrite the rules In dreams You control the code In dreams You rewrite the rules In dreams You control the code Machine dreams you are the author Machine dreams we can rebuild Machine dreams you are the author Machine dreams we can rebuild
