(lyrics)

An even strobe, a pulse of flashing hatelights
of synthetic souls - mass produced: hammered into shape
A sign of the 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 cannot wake, I'm not asleep

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 run by your laws: Destroy Erase Improve
Lesson first: Submission, we're docile servant dogs
Our leashes are your limbs computed deep within

Remolded minds controlled our thoughts
No more doubts, the new way is here
Disgorged: another thousand fakes
That obey to a circuit skein to vacuum

Mechanical thoughts I now conceive
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 fibers give in to chords to the unknown

See me, be me
Same contents, same machine

The currency of ours no more
Flesh and bone we are to be
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.
