Fractured Bones - Dan Bull

Sat alone, eyes covered up with a smug grin

Feel a slight buzzing in my bones and I’m plugged in

Hello, this isn’t a tech demo

Didn’t you get the memo?

No problemo

Let me show you the ropes and go over the basics

See, you’re kind of like Neo is in the Matrix

But the case is, this is your nine to five

The real life place you’re based in isn’t quite as nice

My mind is amidst the binary digits

As I sit and violently fidget

I’m just minding me business

'Til I’m finally finding the bridge, climb up and fix it

To decipher the mystic cyber cypher, decrypt it

Spit it as a lyric, no surprise the rhymes are so rhythmic

It’s enough to make you feel quite excitable isn’t it?

It’s a sign of the times a harry styles track

Rewind, reassigning the time so set the dial back

Reality bleeds out of fractured bones

See with clarity free now no chaperones

The last chapter’s closed you have captured zones

Alas cast the stones and have smashed your bones

Reality bleeds out of fractured bones

See with clarity free now no chaperones

The last chapter’s closed, smash your bones

What power resides in the clock tower?

A tick without a tock now it’s shut down for hours

Feel entitled to what’s not ours

So you go and I drop like Alice

Following the rabbit further down to the servers

And whatever we’ll have found we deserve it

Doubt we’ll ever be coming back out to the surface

But it doesn’t matter 'cause we found a new purpose

I’ve seen it in my deep dreams, seeing is believing

As I live and breathe, a living being isn’t breathing

Do you need another reason

To leap in and be dealing a beating

To the people you’re meeting?

That’s Mike Diva that I’ve just seen on the screen

So now we might even meet up with Hila with Ethan

I see that you’re breathing a sigh of deep relief

Stress level zero and finally at peace

LED’s shine in the gloom like a glow worm

My iris size acclimatised to boneworks

Covert but no, I don’t know the codeword

The one that’s supposed to have opened it won’t work

Throw me a bone, give me a moment to go home

And do my homework on Newtonian omens

I’ve only gone and gone rogue from monogon

Blown your mind wide open with my own atomic bomb

Like wearing my own clothes to comic-con

There’s something wrong with my flows I’m droning on and on

Rap so precocious, stack over flows

Attack processors with crack overdoses

Crack codes 'til backbones are broken

Cracked, no hypnosis, backdoors are open

I rode in on the back of a horse Trojan

Rewrote the roadmap foreclosed the program

The clock is ticking and the plot is thickening

You’ve gotten in a bit of a pickle of a predicament

Picking up a pick that is thick enough to pull a ligament

Swing it, split the difference and divvy up the dividends

Someone tell the human race of the nature of reality

To man up and just face that we’re facing a calamity

Compassion and grace should be the basics of humanity

Instead we’re heading straight into tyrannical anarchy

A never-ending state of tragedy

Families in famine frantically scraping for the basics scrabbling

Back into the place that we slaved to escape from

To break bonds we may just have to make bombs

Pull out the make up box, get your game face on

Take any assailant straight on and stay strong

Healthy and growing, keep the calcium flowing

Helping your bones to carry yourself where you’re going

Reality bleeds out of fractured bones

See with clarity free now no chaperones

The last chapter’s closed you have captured zones

Alas cast the stones and have smashed your bones

Reality bleeds out of fractured bones

See with clarity free now no chaperones

The last chapter’s closed, smash your bones
