Gods & Machines

(album: Cannibal - 2020)

Suffering is who we are
Bred to pain and born from war
We worship Gods and Machines
No man to rule, land obscene

This is who we are
Born from pain and war
We see Gods and Machines
This is not what it seems

My child you're here to believe
When all you've learnt so far is how to fear
Holy is a construct you see
Made by the power to fool and deceive
Blaspheme and maim, I was an angel the same
Worth is determined by lives I have changed
How can I receive or redeem
When I've been chasing demons much bigger than me

Now, your time has come my friend
You will not depend
Full of this regret
Now, they're here for you again
This will be the end
We are lost to death

This is who we are
Born from pain and war
We see Gods and Machines
This is not what it seems

What if I told you there could be a way?
We can change this whole world in a day
Relinquish faith, return the machine
Free your mind, again to dream
Attached to wires, we can't see
Switch the power, rescue me
Given a chance is all we ask
Reset the future, destroy the past

Now, your time has come my friend
You will not depend
Full of this regret
Now, they're here for you again
This will be the end
We are lost to death

Unholy, unloved
Raised in the wild, baptised in blood
Unholy, unloved
Raised in the wild, baptised in blood

Return to us, escape the flood
In the wild, baptised in blood
Return to us, escape the flood
Destroy machines, fear no god

Now, your time has come my friend
You will not depend
Full of this regret
Now, they're here for you again
This will be the end
We are lost to death
