Showdown&Sundown: like a rolling stone (Bob Dylan)

Sometimes I just wonder why
So many people scream and cry
When they’re blogging in the world wide web
They act like fools and they loose their heads

I got the social media blues
Too many victims of fake news 
Conspiracy, idiocracy, virtual humanity
Here, there and everywhere

A cry of freedom, a call for truth
Big data in the hands of fools
Nevermore your mind belongs to you
You can’t even die, as member of the group

I got the social media blues
Too many victims of fake news 
Conspiracy, idiocracy, virtual humanity
Here, there and everywhere

I got the social media blues
Lost in a digital maze of truth
Conspiracy, idiocracy, virtual solidarity



social media blues (Marc Tepelmann)

for my daughter Sarah
close the book and learn by yourself
close your eyes and you will see what´s in your mind

stick to the dream, life is as strange as it seems
but keep that fire burning and the spirit will be joining you on your way
don’t be afraid, you gotta go your own way

words are only sound unless you give them something real
truth is just a word unless you believe in what you feel
there´s only one great competition, it´s the one you got with yourself
you should roll your dices, don´t give ´em to someone else
stick to the light in you, it´s stronger than wind and rain
a leader in the darkness, relief in times of pain

you might loose a battle but you cannot loose the war
as long as you keep that fire burning
close the book and learn by yourself
close your eyes and you will see what´s in your mind
don’t be afraid, you gotta go your own way
