    Deeper Understanding - Kate Bush (1989)

    As the people here grow colder, I turn to my computer

    And spend my evenings with it like a friend

    I was loading a new programme

    I had ordered from a magazine

    “Are you lonely, are you lost?”

    “This voice console is a must”

    I press execute

    Hello, I know that you’ve been feeling tired

    I bring you love and deeper understanding

    Hello, I know that you’re unhappy

    I bring you love and deeper understanding

    Well, I’ve never known such pleasure

    Nothing else seemed to matter, I neglected my bodily needs

    I did not eat, I did not sleep, the intensity increasing

    'Til my family found me and intervened

    But I was lonely, I was lost

    Oh so lost without my little black box

    I pick up the phone and press execute

    Hello, I know that you’ve been feeling tired

    I bring you love and deeper understanding

    Hello, I know that you’re unhappy

    I bring you love and deeper understanding

    Hello

    Love

    Hello

    Love

    I turn to my computer like a friend

    Hello?

    …children should only share thoughts and feelings with their parents.

    I get the sentiment, but yeesh that’s a statement I can’t get behind.

      Yeah children should definitely share their thoughts and feelings with their friends, teachers, family or whoever they need to. Just not with Mark Zuckerberg.

    Oh no, they might be conversing with something smarter than me!
