Welcome, this is central control We decide what’s good for your soul Do not bother to resist us We know your friends and they’ll assist us

There is safety in sameness Why go and blame us? We’re not mistaken You’ll be happier this way

With not much left to discuss There’s no use feeling anonymous I’d rather find out for myself I must remain autonomous How can you still think it perverse When a greater good is being served? Everyone please pay attention Reality’s your own invention

There is safety in sameness Why go and blame us? We’re not mistaken You’ll be happier this way

With not much left to discuss There’s no use feeling anonymous I’d rather find out for myself I must remain autonomous

Feel what I feel Just see what I see Nothing is real

I’ve seen it with my own two eyes You twist the truth into your lies I do not hear a word you say So save your breath and go away I’m not like you, I’m not the same Just try to make me play your game There is one thing that you can trust I will remain autonomous I don’t need anyone To show me the way I’ll be there soon enough It doesn’t matter what day

Listen to me Feel how I feel Just see what I see Nothing is real

      I spent more time on IRC than USENET but I certainly remember it.

      I didn’t take the name until much later when I identified more closely with the word, but this was certainly my first exposure to it when I was young.

      This was a side project of the guy behind Din_Fiv and it felt very similar feeling, at least for the first album. Later Informatik turned into synthpop and I lost interest in them.

        Only did IRC a couple times… I think I got my first batch of anime through an IRC bot, come to think of it…
