lyrics

Sifting through all the destruction
Bodies Bloated in the sun
Machines are searching for survivors
What monstrosities will become?

We must flee to warn the others
There are no soldiers left to fight
Fallen to mechanized destruction
There is no hope for us tonight
The machines will overtake us
And carry us into their hive
To process us for assimilation
I pray to God to let me die

A Mechanized Destruction

Taken by The Mechanoids
I face a prison wall
I have no knowledge of my fate
No reason why I live at all
A sound starts whining in my head
As paralysis kicks in
It seems that those behind me
are peeling off my skin
No pain, no kick, no muscular reaction
A fly caught in a web
And soon a reconfiguration
Begins inside my head
I try to fight. Resist the urge
To give up all my will
I strain my mind to free myself
From a military drill

It probes my thoughts. Left, Right, Left, Right
My hemispheres submit
It sucks out all my empathy
Desensitizes it
It chews up all my humor and
Destroys my misery
Takes away my memory
And all I want to be
My skull has now been fitted
with a battle fit devise
To seek, destroy, and subjugate
With a heart as cold as ice
Left, Right, Left, Right
A military drill
Rechargeable with batteries
That Fire, explode, and kill
Spare part surgery. Scorched earth philosophy
is now all I can do.
A Cyber Viral Organism
A soldier through and through
Above all yearning, above all learning
One compulsion reigns
To replace all fleshly variation
With identical robot brains
