Intro - Fast, energetic guitar riff with a driving drum beat, similar to the start of "Original Prankster")
Verse 1)
Another headline, flashing on the screen
More notifications, a digital machine
They're tracking habits, telling me what's best
No moment's private, putting me to the test
Used to just tune out, turn a deaf ear
Now the details find me, banishing all cheer
From every device, every app and site
Drowning in the noise, day and through the night
(Chorus)
Oh, the data deluge, washing over me
No more "spare me the details," nowhere left to flee
Every little factoid, every single byte
Filling up my brain, blinding all my light
The algorithm knows me, better than I know myself
Piling up the junk mail on my digital shelf
Information overload, a never-ending stream
Waking up to nightmares from a digital dream!
(Verse 2)
My inbox screaming, a hundred more to read
About a celebrity I don't need to feed
Friend's vacation photos, a stranger's bad review
Conspiracy theories, feeling something new
The world's an open book, with every page unfurled
Bombarded by the tidbits of the entire world
From what you had for breakfast, to every thought you had
It's all compiled and filed, making me go mad
(Chorus)
Oh, the data deluge, washing over me
No more "spare me the details," nowhere left to flee
Every little factoid, every single byte
Filling up my brain, blinding all my light
The algorithm knows me, better than I know myself
Piling up the junk mail on my digital shelf
Information overload, a never-ending stream
Waking up to nightmares from a digital dream!
(Bridge)
I tried to disconnect, pulled the plug, shut it down
But the whispers still follow me through the town
They're talking 'bout the market, the weather, and the news
Just trying to exist, but there's no way to lose
The endless stream of chatter, the things I never asked
My sanity is slipping, living life unmasked!
(Guitar Solo - Fast, melodic, and slightly chaotic, short but impactful)
(Chorus)
Oh, the data deluge, washing over me
No more "spare me the details," nowhere left to flee
Every little factoid, every single byte
Filling up my brain, blinding all my light
The algorithm knows me, better than I know myself
Piling up the junk mail on my digital shelf
Information overload, a never-ending stream
Waking up to nightmares from a digital dream!
(Outro)
No escape! (Data!) No escape! (Details!)
Just more, more, more! (Data!)
(Fast fade out with repeated guitar riff and drums)
