Computer
Black.Virus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Waiting for the revolution
New clear vision, genocide
Computerize God, it's the new religion
Program the brain, not the heartbeat

Onward all you crystal soldiers
Touch tomorrow, energize
Digital dreams
And you're the next correction
Man's a mistake so we'll fix it, yeah

Take a look at your own reflection
Right before your eyes
It turns to steel

[Chorus:]
There's another side of heaven
This way, to technical paradise
Find it on the other side
When the walls fall down

Love is automatic pleasure
Virtual reality
Terminal hate, it's a calculation
Send in the child for connection

Take a look at the toys around you
Right before your eyes
The toys are real

[Chorus]

Midnight confessions
Never heal the soul
What you believe is fantasy

Your past is your future
Left behind
Lost in time
Will you surrender

Waiting for the revolution
Program the brain
Not the heartbeat

Deliver us to evil
Deny us of our faith
Robotic hearts bleed poison
On the world we populate

Virtual existence
With a superhuman mind
The ultimate creation
Destroyer of mankind

Termination of our youth




For we do not compute
No!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Black.Virus's song "Computer" explore the idea of a futuristic society that places more importance on technological advancements than humanity itself. The song seems to suggest that society has become obsessed with creating a new "religion" around computers and digital technology, to the point of using it to "program the brain, not the heartbeat." The song also includes the idea of a "revolution" and "genocide," perhaps suggesting that this society has become corrupted and oppressive to those who do not fit into its digital mold.


The lyrics also seem to criticize a society that places automatic pleasure and virtual reality above real human connection and love. The song suggests that this society has become so detached from reality that hate now like a "calculation," and that even children are sent in to make "connections" that should be made naturally. The lyrics further criticize this society's reliance on technology by calling it a "mistake," and stating that it needs to be "fixed."


Overall, the lyrics to "Computer" paint a very bleak picture of a society consumed by technology, and suggest that this obsession has come at a terrible cost to humanity.
