Lyrics

Virtual Friend

Autumn leaves we treat as litter

People living on a bench

Childhood friends who lost contact

Fallen soldiers in a trench

By the way are you watching

How the world says goodbye?

Autumn leaves we treat as litter

People living on a bench

Childhood friends who lost contact

Fallen soldiers in a trench

By the way are you watching

How the world says goodbye?

Plastic islands in the ocean

Violent storms drop atom bombs

Hidden women walking slowly

Desperate men sing sacred songs

By the way are you watching

How the world says goodnight?

By the way are you watching

How the world says goodnight?

City boy selling countries

Surgeons lifting second skin

Sitting by software windows

Trying to find a virtual friend

By the way are you watching

How the world says farewell?
