Once a flaw, now a link in the Machine
Piece-by-piece assembled ending for a dream.
Steam-driven monster setting pace for our last dance,
It never really made much sense.
Assembly line moves on and the spirit is undone
And all the hopes get shattered one by one.
A vast asylum for the fuckups without names,
After all it's just a game.
And we keep the lights to guide us when the sun goes down,
And we sing the songs to bind us when we hear their sound,
And we say the soothing words before the morning comes
While we dream of machines that haunt our vision of the dawn…
Machine:
And we bid you welcome.
Welcome to the birth of a thousand suns.
Remember the sight well,
For it may be the last thing that you see.
And that which was free may no longer be,
And you're now the Machine that was forced unto thee,
With inmates attending the industrial mass
In a frightening moment that refuses to pass.
And we keep the lights to guide us when the sun goes down,
And we sing the songs to bind us when we hear their sound,
And we say the soothing words before the morning comes
While we dream of machines that haunt our vision of the dawn…
