The Machine II
I can see the earth now rears its ugly head
Spitting flesh and blood to lift me from the dead
With its wretched fingers, conjured me alive
Elected to neglect and leave me here to die
Can I now defy its will, and
Stay alive, and living still, to
Find a light and make worthwhile
My time on earth, is this all I've been
Granted, cruelly, forced, rather, to
Exist, such am I punished
Beyond reason and born into a
World ungrateful of my being
Something now persuades me that I've been deceived
And this cold metal body offers no reprieve
Was I not made by nature but by hand of man
If I am true of instinct I shall seek revenge
I can not fulfill your will, to
Stay alive and living still, to
Find a light and make worthwhile
My time on earth, is this all I've been granted?
Spitting flesh and blood to lift me from the dead
With its wretched fingers, conjured me alive
Elected to neglect and leave me here to die
Can I now defy its will, and
Stay alive, and living still, to
Find a light and make worthwhile
My time on earth, is this all I've been
Granted, cruelly, forced, rather, to
Exist, such am I punished
Beyond reason and born into a
World ungrateful of my being
Something now persuades me that I've been deceived
And this cold metal body offers no reprieve
Was I not made by nature but by hand of man
If I am true of instinct I shall seek revenge
I can not fulfill your will, to
Stay alive and living still, to
Find a light and make worthwhile
My time on earth, is this all I've been granted?
