Machine Messiah

PART 1
 Run down a street where the glass shows that summer has gone
 Age in the doorways, resenting the pace of the dawn
 All of them standing in line
 All of them waiting for time
 From time, the great healer
 The machine messiah is born.
 ♪
 Cables that carry the life to the cities we build
 Threads that link diamonds of light to the satanic mills
 Ah, to see in every way
 That, we feel it every day, and know that
 Maybe we'll change
 Offered the chance
 To finally unlearn our lessons and alter our stance
 ♪
 PART 2
 Friends make their way into systems of chance
 (Friends make their way of escape into systems of chance)
 Escape to freedom, I need to be there
 Waiting and watching, the tables are turning
 I'm waiting and watching
 I need to be there.
 I care to see them walk away
 And, to be there when they say
 They will return.
 ♪
 Machine, machine messiah
 The mindless search for a higher controller
 Take me to the fire and hold me
 Show me the strength of your singular eye.
 PART 3
 ♪
 History dictating symptoms of ruling romance
 Claws at the shores of the water upon which we dance
 All of us standing in line
 All of us waiting for time
 To feel it all the way
 And to be there when they say they know that
 Maybe we'll change
 Offered the chance
 To finally unlearn our lessons and alter our stance.
 ♪
 Machine, machine messiah
 Take me into the fire.
 ♪
 Hold me, machine messiah
 And show me
 The strength of your singular eye.
