an even stobe a pulse of flashing hatelights of synthetic souls massproduced hammered to shaped a sign of times dreams turn into systems a new way a new breed implanted in our minds		here i am in the hand of a sterile hate the new control i can not wake i'm not a sleep
new intelligence arise in emptied bodies turgid flesh tested through eternal spastic fits through not known codes mother machine in genocide now scorn a dying race		evolution in reverse now it's time for me changing what am i to be contorted an eternity defeated
programmed to appease you we're symbols of perfection humanoids runed by your laws : destroy erase improve lesson first : submission we're docile servant dogs our leashes are your limbs computed deep within		remoted minds controlled our thoughts no more doubts the new way is here disgorged
another thousands fakes that obey to a		circuit skein to vacuum
mechanical thoughts i now concieve no longer me always to see inanity millions to be units like me eternally human patterns copied dissected distorted completed to fit the machine the nerve fibres give in to cords to the unknown		see me be me same contents same machine
the currency of ours no more flesh and bone we are to unaware of what we have been before		evolution in reverse now it's time for me changing what am i to be contorted an eternity defeated by the new machine
