lyrics

As I awake
The flesh we forsake
The body that breaks
I just
Wish I could be more
Much more than this
Than my brittle bones
My blood, my skin
Be rid of my hopes
My doubts, my sins
Be torn apart, rebuilt anew again

Weakness of getting older
Second chances born of solder
Consciousness comes to a blissful end

Take everything I am
Lay waste, eviscerate
My soul programmed into this mainframe
Wilfully enslaved

Feel you growing weaker
Pathetic and feeble pleasure-seeker
Now become a part of this ascension
Unto a higher plain, free of the curse of
Love, of hate, of pain
Let us tear you free of flesh-covered chains
You'll look to the past with calloused disdain
This is your life, rebuilt anew again

Noble purpose to shoulder
Only chance of starting over
Fall to this mechanical embrace

Take everything I am
Lay waste, eviscerate
My soul programmed into this mainframe
Take a look to the sky, as I emerge
The architect of this upsurge
Your fate resting squarely in your hands
A line drawn in the sand

We are not the enemy
You're only wasting your own fleeting time

Take everything I am
Lay waste, eviscerate
My soul programmed into this mainframe
I want you to take everything I am
Making way for the ascension of man

Ascension of man
