From the recording Like The Moon Draws The Water

This song about online gaming is an unabashed 80's throwback. Effects by Shorne Callahan, harmony vocals by Derek Roura.

Lyrics

Don’t say a word
Don’t touch the audio
I’ve caught an echo
It might be my pounding blood
I tap the keys
Adjust my earpiece
The voice is gone
I wonder if it’s gone for good

What do you see?
What do you think of me?
I walk these streets
That are nothing but a fantasy
My avatar
Will find you where you are
Fight or flight?
It’s just between you and me

Invisible metropolis
(User name and password are required)
No time until regenesis
(Can you get this bandwidth any higher?)
Invisible metropolis
(Somewhere in the ether we will meet)
I hear you still, my nemesis
(You’ll pass me all unknowing in the street)

My skin is green
My enemy, unseen
Cross the ravine
To the abandoned waterworks
I’m fighting back
Against your sneak attack
What do you mean,
Can you show me where it hurts?

This is the end
And then we’ll start again
Foe or friend?
I don’t know you to know
What do you see?
What do you think of me?
The space between
us is nothing but a fantasy

Invisible metropolis
(Weapons low, go find the quartermaster)
No time until regenesis
(Why won’t this thing load a little faster?)
Invisible metropolis
(Circle round again toward disaster)
I hear you still, my nemesis
(She will never know until you ask her)

Invisible metropolis
(Combatants from the Black Team may go)
Maybe this is the genesis
(Say it soon or she will never know)
Invisible metropolis
(Shutting down the server for repair)
My calling is my nemesis
(Disappearing echoes in the air)

I tap the keys
Adjust my ear-piece
The voice is gone
I wonder if it’s gone for good
