LIFE ON LIVESTREAM - FALSE LONDON

Life on livestream started out from a dream I had, I was following another copy of myself around for a while before I bashed my own brains in and watched all of my fears and anxieties pour our of the head. 

It struck me as a metaphor for our own kind of need for self care and self actualisation while, at the same time, being the cause of a lot of our own suffering. So I took that idea and decided to write a bit about that. So each verse is a kind of vingette of a person who is unhappy with life and using technology to escape, while at the same time trying (and failing but trying anyway) to get better.
