Primitive Circuitry

by Deterior

/
1.
Step into brilliant light After all this, I will just melt away The swarm encapsulates my body Devours my essence Is one touch all it would take? Is one touch enough? Lying naked, forgotten The sky has never looked so blue Walking empty streets All I think of... all I think of is you I do not know pain I do not know death I do not know pain I do not know your graceful hand I will become those who left us all behind I do not know pain I do not know fear But I understand everything

Lockout 05:53
Millions poured into the machine Millions, but they never saw me As I listened Hundreds threw hungry hands to the sky Together we cursed the machine There was so much We couldn't see And what we didn't understand We never could Get on in... No looking back We've come too far
3.
A Grey Cell 05:04
When we turned out the lights In your empty room We won't look back We won't look back I asked myself why I came here Even though you had been there all along Lost in two oceans A sea of remembrance I'll never drown only for your sake It won't seem too long When we turn the lights back on
4.
Pyramid Lies 05:56
The words of the old gods Were nothing more The worlds of the new gods Will set us free When thousands of tiny lights are all it takes It seems so wrong When thousands of tiny lights are all it takes It's gone too far I open myself and let it all flood in I open myself and a new life begins

Nous 01:41
6.
On hands and knees Everything looks different On hands and knees The result is the same He tried to speak But only a harsh whisper escapes his gaping jaw He'd known it all along Waiting to be emptied He tried to speak But only a harsh whisper escapes his gaping jaw And as it happened He dreamed of a different world Find you inside Why do you sigh?
7.
I had a dream about you As we lay beneath the blazing sun Engulfing our bodies I realized that there are things that last forever I had a dream about you I had a dream about nothing I had a dream about you Soon I'll sleep again Rewiring our circuitry Rewiring, it can't be done
8.
Inheritance 08:11
Today I saw a nation fall Today I ran from all I'd known I saw the sky turn black I saw misery in the streets I saw fear I didn't care I saw death I didn't care Soon this will all be yours The land of mediocrity Do not weep for them For they brought it on Do not weep for them They brought it on themselves
