This is the third (title) track of Swankmajer's first release, Virtual EP (2010).

lyrics

You touch me
virtually
You move me
virtually
You kiss me
virtually
You miss me
in reality

virtual humanity
impossible intimacy
actual uncertainty
sensual banality
physical reality
virtual intimacy
physical uncertainty
actual banality
sensual humanity
impossible reality

V-I-R-T-U-A-L
V-I-R-T-U-A-L
V-I-R-T-U-A-L
V-I-R-T-U-A-L
V-I-R-T-U-A-L
V-I-R-T-U-A-L

I keep logging on late every night
longing for your virtual touch to make me right
Waiting for your 8-bit voice to appear
it's only with you that I can be this forcibly sincere
Are you real or just a virtual fantasy
I don't really mind as long as your status says "online"
Separated by vast stretches of dark forestland
This strange attraction I don't quite understand

V-I-R-T-U-A-L
V-I-R-T-U-A-L
V-I-R-T-U-A-L
V-I-R-T-U-A-L
