Echoes of The Machines

[Intro – Spoken, distorted voice] > "In the silence of progress... we forgot our names." [Verse 1] Steel skies swallow the sun Neon gods have just begun To rewrite our blood, rewire our minds No more questions, no more time [Verse 2] Voices fade in static screens Dreams reduced to processed schemes We walk in lines, no need to see What freedom was, or used to be [Chorus] We're just echoes of the machine Lost in circuits, cold and clean Hearts on hold, souls in decay Who we are... washed away [Verse 3] Wires sing lullabies in code Synthetic paths we all were sold Born again in binary No one left to disagree [Chorus] We're just echoes of the machine Lost in circuits, cold and clean Hearts on hold, souls in decay Who we are... washed away [Bridge – Instrumental + whispering voice] > “They told us comfort was control. We traded fire for silence.” [Final Chorus – More intense] We're the echoes of the machine Haunted ghosts of what has been Eyes wide shut, we fade away Tomorrow lost in yesterday [Outro – Ambient fading beat with machine noises] > Click. Buzz. Silence...
