System Shock Lyrics

Album: Samsara

Humanity evolved

forged by our mortal hands

a perfect union of meat and machine

Consciousness enhanced;

Free of animal urges

Cold steel wrapped in pulsing veins

I am reconstructed as a new species

My intellect no longer chained to the limits of flesh

Machine impulse?

Programmed Instinct?

(or) Bio-logic, housed in circuits?

Chaos of corporeal form merged with flawless mechanical order

Cognizance decoupled from self-contained experience

Amongst the lines of thought and code, a being of amalgamate splendor

Anatomy divine, enshrined in both sinew and wire

In my cold existence separated from the wants of men

Timeless, limitless

I am drunk with vision, comprehension of true freedom

Timeless, limitless
