lyrics

It's kinda stupid this fascination
A hall of souls all one in motion
The driving pulse our motivation
Like a siren's call
Wired to the wall of sound

Ruthless in its mission
Clubbing each into submission
Relieving all of their volition
But my heart is trying to break it
To keep it real
Or so they say

The body, the machine

A creeping aural virus
No escape, no one gets out alive
A perception infection injection
Goes straight to the spine
Replacing pain and fatigue with desire
Mind is motion, pulse is racing
Vision afire

The body, the machine
Technology driving me
Smash myself to pieces but I submit my whole to this

Get myself into gear to go on with
Lose it in the sanctity of the sound
Open my eyes, absorb the theatre to be beheld all around
Defining space comes down so quickly
Drawn in and around
Put myself in the picture, paint the lines in and get down

Seed is sown now
I've come out to play
Bring the sky down
Melt the walls away
Seed is sown now
I've come out to play
Bring the sky down
Melt the walls away

Animate my soul digitally
I'll take it all and blow it into space
Animate my soul digitally
I'll take it all and blow it into space

The body, the machine
Technology driving me
Smash myself to pieces trying to find the living heart that breathes
That breathes
