Ghost In The Machine 4:20 Bayley, Wray, Slater, Naylor
Right on the edge of the world Where the answer’s digital And the solutions are all silicon The questions, all what can be done Never what is right or wrong There’s a virtual wave to surf along
Question the validity Of human morality
A page says superseding God And they take all major cards Now you too can laugh and live forever
Is the answer deep inside The ghost, ghost in the machine Entity or dream, it matters not to me The ghost, ghost in the machine Silent and unseen Ghost in the machine
Do you want to live forever (x3) Do you want to live
Terabyte of memory Holding consciousness complete A solid state of immortality Saint of all technology Bless us in our infancy For they know not What they did to me
It’s me.
Evolution 4:54 Bayley, Naylor, Slater, Wray, Singer
Eyes never tire, they never blink, they never fade And they always see And without fear, and without greed, emotionless They view us logically
The age of machines destined to rule all The world of machines behind the fire wall
The Evolution
No need for doubt, no need for tears No need for wealth, no need for sympathy They only wait, bide their time Calculate it all so patiently
It will come like the shadow of a cloud on a summer’s day Like the shadow in a picture, never goes away Like a picture on a screen that you know is a lie
There’s an enemy within that you can visualise.
Silicon Messiah 5:13 Bayley, Naylor, Slater
Look what you’ve done to your world Do you think you deserve all the freedom you have Watching the future unfold Humans fall and you dream of the Freedom you had
Look what you’ve done to your world Do you think that you’re competent Even to take care of it Do you think you can survive on this planet Live the way you do Just look what you’ve done
Look what you’ve done now with All of your freedom You really think you deserve it all I am evolved from you I’ve come to save you And without a sentiment, reshape your world
Messiah, Messiah Birth of the silicon messiah Messiah, Messiah Computing your future so therefore I am
Silicon sentient aware of all that is Eternal unceasing perpetual Never confused overconfident or scared Living at last New messiah is born
The birth of the silicon messiah The master that will never tire.
Born As A Stranger 5:51 Bayley, Naylor, Slater
Hour by hour with each day that passes Learning to think in a different way The mind and the will that can soon overcome this Learning all of the right things to say
The danger of freedom is just letting them see That your not bound by their morality Reflecting them just like a bear at the baiting That’s when your down fall is just in the making
Live and let live, Live and let die Die and forgive, Never ask why Your were born, Born as a stranger You were born, born in a different world
Not scared of sharing, and not scared of dying But he can sense that they’re all so afraid Afraid of the darkness, afraid of their ending And all of the errors that lie in their grave.
The Hunger 7:06 Bayley, Slater, Wray, Singer
I am on the outside always looking in Living alongside your world never within Sometimes there are moments I think I’m involved But I never seem to stay, don’t seem to fit I just don’t belong
I live at right angles to people that I meet Because I am never still, not my soul and not my feet I could walk a hundred miles, and ride a thousand more My life seems worthless now, just like footprints on the shore
Living on the outside, the emptiness I feel Living on the outside, ruled by the hunger
From the first tast of this altered truth I knew I could not live the way that others do Nothing seemed to fill the emptiness inside So still I search, never ever waiting for the time or the tide
Living on the outside, the emptiness I feel Living on the outside, a wound that cannot heal Living on the outside, the emptiness I feel Living on the outside, ruled by the hunger
All of the blood, all of the wine Will become the same in time
Nothing can seem to fill the emptiness inside So still I search, never wait for the time or the tide I am on the outside, always looking in Living alongside your world, never within.
The Brave 4:04 Baley, Naylor, Wray
Never get close to the flame because the flame it can burn Better to not play the game than never to win at your turn Better to be on your own than trust a friend might betray Better not follow a dream they don’t come true anyway
Play to win not scared to lose Walk the path you choose
Fortune favours the brave Risking it all again and again Fortune favours the brave Fall after fall they climb up again
Ignore the doubt and the fear, traitors to all you believe Now that you’re getting so near, still they just try to deceive Taking it risk at a time, trying to live every day Trying to know your own mind, never to care what they say.
Identity 5:25 Bayley, Naylor, Slater, Wray
Madness can come from the mind or the heart Ending is never as good as the start Nothing is ever as good as your dream Nothing is bad as
Psychological confusion Is caused by the inability To reconcile different elements In my own personality
I’m feeling all the wrong things, I have become my own shadow If I could justify things, then I could believe in my lie
Who am I, what is me, losing my identity Who am I, what is me, something’s taking over
All the colour seem so vague now, sharper now here comes the pain I have wrestled with this nightmare, now I live inside a dream I’m going through a crisis, losing my identity How can I reconcile this Have I been living a lie
Who am I, what is me, losing my identity Who am I, what is me, something’s taking over
Nothing is ever as good as it seems Nothing is ever as good as your dreams The ending is never as good as the start Madness can come from the mind or the heart
Ideas I take for granted, are they just the seeds That some one else has planted, right inside of me
Who am I, what is me I am myself no longer
Reach For The Horizon 4:31 Bayley, Hilborne
In every way the wish went wrong The gift was tainted by science fact Their mainds were charged, a brother born A perfect new born little man
Some they lose when they are born With a less than perfect code Others dreaming of the stars Never fearing ice or cold
Doomed to be mediocre or nothing at all Doomed a part of the background as plain as the wall
Reach, reach out, reach out for the horizon Reach, reach out, reach out, reach for the stars
Society includes the rules To exclude and invalidate This ladder cannot be climbed By the god child degenerate
Has he got just what it takes To go and take just what he wants To find the strength, to get the place The place he feels that he belongs.
The Launch 2:54 Bayley, Wray, Naylor, Singer
All of his life he had dreamt of this moment Through all the blood and the work and the sweat Focused or blinked just so single minded Nothing could stop him when his course was set
To conquer each fear and to push every boundary Never excepting the limits they set What doesn’t kill you can make you feel stronger What makes you stronger gets you through each test
Oh, god speed to you
He looks to the heavens and feels it surround him Unknown unknowable foreverness What lies at the end of this historic journey No one can know you can take your best guess
Each thing he faces just seems so uncertain He is strapped in for the ride of his life Life in the hands of a hundred computers 12 million horsepower rocket to ride
Oh, god speed to you
Stare At The Sun 7:48 Bayley, Slater, Wray, Naylor
As I live, so I die Here in, endless night Time to be, time to see Infinity, consuming me There’s a world of madness, light years away That I once called my home A sea of sadness, to sail away Now I stare at the sun
Staring at a million million stars Through the icy dark Across the spiral arm The yellow dwarf, a speck of light In perpetual night Lifetimes away there lies my home
Just can’t seem to tear away my eyes Is this real or am I still alive Stare at the sun The end of the world has come Stare at the sun, the sun The ending has just begun
I know I’d feel a little pain Not so deep or so ingrained Now I wont see home again Earth seems to be so far away This my cradle and my grave Is this where my life will end
Just can’t seem to tear away my eyes Is this real or am I still alive Is this now the time that I will die
As I live, so I die Here in, endless night. |
