Lyrics

Insomnia taunts me, I turned on my t.v.;
Rapt in the arms of a galaxy spiral
Heard a sea-shell hid it's secret as well
This nexus is key to our planets survival

One precious moment it all became clear;
Brain-cloud-haze lifted by euphoric fear
To the unknown my mind's eye directed;
Beheld every mote in creation connected

No more hereafter, eugenics our master;
Sectarist lecture mere witless hubris
Humanity's blunder was ceasing to wonder;
Why are we here; what's the meaning of this?

Virtual church without actual sages;
Souls under scrutiny, rats in glass cages
Enigmas deciphered are no longer needed;
Lost words of warning unheard or unheeded

Chorus:
We're all hooked-up to the vast karmic internet;
Each of our souls on the end of its fibre
One sacred fact that we can't download yet;
The truth is we share the same service-provider

One precious moment it all became clear;
Brain-cloud-haze lifted by euphoric fear
To the unknown my mind's eye directed;
Beheld every mote in creation connected

Chorus:
We're all hooked-up to the vast karmic internet;
Each of our souls on the end of its fibre
One sacred fact that we can't download yet;
The truth is we share the same service-provider

The atheist plays whilst the orthodox pray
Fundamentalists freak-out as humanists scoff
A headlong collision 'twixt science and religion;
There'll be hell to pay
When one day god logs-off
