Across the world the message flies
Information, truth and lies
It`s all yours and it`s all ,mine
You just have to find the time
We`re all the same, we share the blame, we play the games
If it`s yes or no the decision is easy, it`s easy
Zeroes and ones will take us there.
This time the revolution will be computerized
You`ll know it as you do it
In real time before your eyes
Slip between realities
There`s more to this than anything that you or I can see
The world is mine, the world is yours and here`s the cause
Zeroes and ones will take us there.
I`ve stared into the heart of it all
Seen the piCtures on the wall
The beat of a heart
The oceans part and the patterns in my mind
This time, we`ve split the world once more
There`s those that have and that don`t in information wars
Wer`e not alone `cos all is known, and it`s everywhere
Zeroes and ones will take us there.
