Dual Core - Painting Pictures lyrics

I gotta share this story 'cause it brightened my world Our main character is an amazing little girl Wide-eyed, observant, and taking in everything Plus the biggest smile that anyone had ever seen Happy as could be, it didn't make sense 'Cause this little girl was surrounded by silence All through, audio masked, like a costume No sound either way, ergo, no volume Never said a word, never made a noise In fact, she'd never even heard her parents voice But they loved her exactly the same, nothing fancy Can't overestimate the value of a family Taught her how to sign, write the alphabet, and read And showed me that special needs make a special breed Hands down, agreed, best money they ever spent Was getting a computer and connection to the internet In new technology, I'm placing all my trust 'Cause this is the science I've grown to know and love Discoveries and research with time as the offset Moving so fast just imagining the progress Endless possibilities, the future isn't clear Can't wait to see where we're gonna go from here With meaning, ambition, drive, and a purpose Just you wait, we're only scratching the surface Technology's impact can be so profound Having conversations without the need for sound Engaging was easy as now she had a choice 'Cause online the internet gave her a voice Plus she discovered that she's very artistic Designs illustrations showing how she's gifted Scrolls and uploads to community posts And gets all the downloads and popular votes And still loves reading, research, and learning Her fire for knowledge, it never stops burning She comes across an article about an advance The cochlear implant would give her a chance Reverse and unearth a whole world she's never heard Connect a couple wires and activate the nerves This gift that we're given, for her, would be priceless Explore the other side of this curtain made of silence In new technology, I'm placing all my trust 'Cause this is the science I've grown to know and love Discoveries and research with time as the offset Moving so fast just imagining the progress Endless possibilities, the future isn't clear Can't wait to see where we're gonna go from here With meaning, ambition, drive, and a purpose Just you wait, we're only scratching the surface She met with the doctors and planned all of it out Insurance came through and they paid the whole amount Now I believe in miracles, I'll honestly confess Impressed, the surgery had ended in success Confused by the very first sounds that she hears In therapy for years while adjusting to her ears Hit a couple barriers, she's overcoming all of it Dedicated, working every day with audiologists Plus she's an optimist, still got that smile It's even bigger now, grin is wider than a mile Talking to her parents, such a great influence Speaking with her friends even getting into music Grooving to some nerdcore and hearing all the fun She's a dual core fan, favorite album's zero one But that might change with the song that you're witnessing I mean this sincerely: thank you for listening In new technology, I'm placing all my trust 'Cause this is the science I've grown to know and love Discoveries and research with time as the offset Moving so fast just imagining the progress Endless possibilities, the future isn't clear Can't wait to see where we're gonna go from here With meaning, ambition, drive, and a purpose Just you wait, we're only scratching the surface In new technology, I'm placing all my trust 'Cause this is the science I've grown to know and love Discoveries and research with time as the offset Moving so fast just imagining the progress Endless possibilities, the future isn't clear Can't wait to see where we're gonna go from here With meaning, ambition, drive, and a purpose Just you wait, we're only scratching the surface
