Meshuggah - Future Breed-machine lyrics

An even strobe

A pulse of flashing hatelights

Of synthetic souls

Massproduced - hammered to shape

A sign of times

Dreams turn into systems

A new way; a new breed

Implanted in our minds

(Here I am) in the hand of

(A sterile hate) the new control

(I can not wake) I'm not a sleep

New intelligence arise

In emptied bodies

Turgid flesh tested through

Eternal spastic fits

Through not known codes

Mother machine in genocide

Now scorn a dying race

Evolution (In reverse)

Now it's time for me (Changing)

What am I to be (Contorted)

An eternity (Defeated)

Programmed to appease you

We're symbols of perfection

Humanoids runned by your laws:

Destroy, erase, improve

Lesson first: submission

We're docile servant dogs

Our leashes are your limbs

Computed deep within

Remoted minds

Controlled our thoughts

No more doubts

The new way is here

Disgorged

Another thousands fakes

That obey to a circuit skein

To vacuum

Mechanical thoughts I now concieve

No longer me, always to see inanity

Millions to be units like me eternally

Human patterns copied dissected distorted

Completed to fit the machine

The nerve fibres give in to cords

To the unknown...

See me

Be me

Same contents

Same machine

(The currency) of ours no more

(Flesh and bone) we are to be

(Unaware) of what we have been before

Evolution (in reverse)

Now it's time for me (Changing)

What am I to be (contorted)

An eternity (defeated)

By the new machine...
