Reining In The Machine
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We got machines to do everything we can do
Man made machines doing everything for you
We maximised their intelligence
And made future proof resolve
And with our technological advances
We watched the machines evolve
Reining in the machines
Draining resources
Killing our dreams
Reining in the machines
Artificial mechanical
Replicating our genes
Reining in the machines
Man made them in our image
And loaded weapons to use and fight
So is this our end or their future
Or will our world be deleted tonight
Mobile phones taking images
Catch us sleeping on the subway
While watching ourselves go viral
Then blame the apps that brought us fame
Reining in the machines
Draining resources
Killing our dreams
Reining in the machines
Artificial mechanical
Replicating our genes
Reining in the machines
Draining resources
Killing our dreams
Reining in the machines
I am machine
I digitised your voices
And sampled your dreams
I am machine
From analogue to digital
Synthesised to extreme
I am machine
Don’t blame the pioneers
For this futurist regime
Not just machine
Evolved to have feelings
Like humans I breathe
Advanced I avoid
Virus and disease
And now I stand here staring out across the silicon land
Posting every minute of every hour losing seconds a day
Or are we all beyond caring
When passwords start failing
Signals the rise of the machines
