Simulation

(album: 360 Yellow - 2023)

Do you think we're living in a simulation?
It doesn't matter
Why?
Let's say we are living in a simulation, so what?
If we're all just bits of data floating through some cable somewhere
That doesn't make what we're experiencing right now any less real to us
If you're playing The Sims your Sims only know what they can experience
So why bother fixating on the uncontrollable, the unknowable
Where something that if everything were to shut off tomorrow, what would change?
If we found out we were in a simulation, what would change?
Would everything not matter?
But you have all these experiences
You have all these emotions
You felt things
So it doesn't really matter if we're simulated or not
Do you think we're living in a simulation?
