lyrics

these machines are animals
their monotonous drone
they stagger thru the streets
we'll hide like rats beneath

i'll sit and watch soap operas
as the sky sets fire around us
the morning we will wake
the strength drained from our frames
to find our homes in flames
the sun won't rise again

paint your face and forget your name
we'll live like granddad did
shit like this can never change
crawl back in the womb again

save us

and the god machines will speak
cower at their feet
blinds mistakes we made will haunt us in our graves

paint your face and forget your name
we'll live like granddad did
shit like this can never change
crawl back in the womb again

let's de-evolve
run back to the oceans we crawled out of
whoa oh
