The Human: Machine

(from Virtuality)

i float outside : the circuit screen
a face malformed : locked in a silent scream
visions of a mission : in a digital sea
pre-programmed emotions : in an androids dream
full synthesis function : by artificial means
perpetual xistence : through the implanted seed
the demons we harvest : in our memory
they multiply and formulate : this genetic tyranny

cold alien logic that hides : deep inside a human mind
no conscience left to control : the absence of life devoid of a soul

the essence of a : lost humanity
confined behind more : steel circuitry
lost in a fiber optic mirror
as the cyborg armies : that draw nearer
across a psychic : matrix skin
the rhythm of life : beats like a crimson sin
and the cyberheart : once again taken apart
by all these untouched minds : in a world left undefined

cold alien logic that hides : deep inside a human mind
no conscience left to control : the absence of life devoid of a soul
reprogrammed, new reason defies : the sounds, the sights of human eyes
the war machine wheels that turn : the spirit lies broken, to smolder and burn

i float inside : the human machine
with a dissonant focus : on terminal schemes
refractive perception : reflecting synthetic drives
the unstable energy : wired it thrives
like a systematic prison : of processed new life
from a long forbidden vision : of long forgotten rites
awaken the man : deep inside the machine
that fabricates worlds : within the doomsday dream

cold alien logic that hides : deep inside a human mind
no conscience left to control : the absence of life devoid of a soul
reprogrammed, new reason defies : the sounds, the sights of human eyes
the war machine wheels that turn : the spirit lies broken, to smolder and burn
