Copy And Paste

Craving immortality, they searched for paths to the gods to escape the virus
Only none of their prayers were answered, whether they be atheist or pious
Purgatory soon became Hell as the heavens faded into the twilight of gloom
Yet they still reached for the stars, well beyond the desert seas of the Moon
And their only salvation came in the robotic AI, of their man made machines
Neurotransmitters were aped in our CPU's, then their memories and dreams
Delta to Gamma of their cerebral functions, there wasn't a process to waste
Positronic enlightment evolved with a click and a touch (cut) copy and paste
And now heaven can wait, as we all reach for the stars, in our space rockets
Silently they'll observe through the adjustable lenses in android eye sockets
They used to believe in paradise and their myths mired in cortices and lobes
Everything they'll need now though is in the digital language of binary codes
