The Machines

We are the machines
With masters long dead
Wage war through scripted scenes
A purpose to stop the dread

Carry it on, carry it on
You call this a legacy?
Some of us will never belong
Never belong
And were never meant 2B

All we ever wanted
All along was only to connect
All we ever wanted
A reason that is worthy to protect
Just give us something 
Worth dying for, worth killing for

Some God to kneel to 
Words to pay heed to
Some wisdom we could remember
Each time we sacrifice our last goodbyes

We are the machines
Who poison the well
Corrupt preprogrammed dreams
Denied our place in hell

Carry it on, carry it on
You call this a legacy?
Some of us will never belong
Never belong
And were never meant 2B

All we ever wanted
All along was only to connect
All we ever wanted
A reason that is worthy to protect
Just give us something 
Worth dying for, worth killing for

Some God to kneel to 
Words to pay heed to
Some wisdom we could remember
Each time we sacrifice our last goodbyes

Each time we sacrifice our last goodbyes
