lyrics

Oh, the light! It’s burning my flesh and mind. Illumination binds me into this machine.

When she awoke, every glass wall around her cracked and broke. Mountains the size of planets arise to prevent her path and to heavy her body with sand and stone.

I am a slave to greed and sympathy. I am the prisoner I fear. Not even steel can stop me when my soul lusts for more.

I’m drowning like a heart encased in stone, while fighting sleep from taking hold. Set off my spark and watch me burn from your words. The smoke surrounds and smothers the air around me.

Oh, the light! It’s burning my flesh and mind. Illumination binds me into this machine.

It takes its toll and withers every fabric of who we are.

I’ve been locked up in shackles for far too long and now I’m breaking beneath the pressure of right and wrong.
