The new convention

VERSE
Am
A journey into moments
G
A journey out of mind
F
A journey through the possible
Em
Collated and entwined

Telescopic netherworlds
Portals into space
Hyperplexic Ferris wheels
Cut up and replaced

CHORUS
F                               C
Welcome to the new invention 
G                                        F
Where everyone is an artist - Why would anyone disagree?

It's dark inside the great convention
Exhibitors are reminded to be uniformly free

VERSE
Pixelated prophecies
Prompted into being
Will we ever be able to
Believe in what we're seeing

Artistic instability
Call it what you will
It comes without a warranty
And this is not a drill

CHORUS




LYRICS

A journey into moments
A journey out of mind
A journey through the possible
Collated and entwined

Telescopic netherworlds
Portals into space
Hyperplexic Ferris wheels
Cut up and replaced

Welcome to the new invention 
Where everyone is an artist - Why would anyone disagree?

It's dark inside the great convention
Exhibitors are reminded to be uniformly free

Pixelated prophecies
Prompted into being
Will we ever be able to
Believe in what we're seeing

Artistic instability
Call it what you will
It comes without a warranty
And this is not a drill

Welcome to the new invention 
Where everyone is an artist - Why would anyone disagree?

It's dark inside the great convention
Exhibitors are reminded to be uniformly free






VERSE

Gaudi employed everywhere
Buildings that you drink
See your world as psychedelic
Or etched in pen and ink

A self-curated comedy
Or an open-source asylum?
No a digital dystopia
My poor poetic Byron

Democratised - homogenised
It's spherical despair
Comfortably curled up inside
An avocado chair

Pixelated prophecies
Prompted into being
Outsourcing imagination
Believe in what we're seeing

Artistic insecurities
Melovolently mined
All this time a filter setting?
How awfully unkind
