Deep roots without water - Optics without light
Needing solar energy but its permanent midnight
The moon is hangin down and the hour is none
trying to break the cycle but there's too much friction
Running hard - running deep - horizon looking bleak
Falling on their face down the barrel of a losing streak
Coolant running dry - heat a dire symptom
temperature activates the weapon tracking systems
Proximity chooses victims With Borg like brutality
The closer that you are - The more likely your fatality
Sanity grip unravels - while I battle my humanity
When advanced cybernetics doubt their personality
Emotional void from lack of love and nourishment
(so) When they're given high props they feel zero encouragement
Arc flash - overloads the heart and it collapses
Darkness dances on the graves of their enhancements
Rusty innard leakage - breakin down self-esteem to blackness
Makes a box that shackles like thoughts and straight jackets
Encryption codes totally lost that undo this evil sequence
These cats are genius but they only see their weakness 20
Chorus
Cry with me for all the lost robots
Dead to the world for swallowing the program
Cry with me for all the lost robots
Dead to the world executed slowly

If I could hack and mod them - I would but I can't - why?
Am I broken myself - eyes (glowing) red like a bad guy
Got an “S” on my chest but I can't fly
Retrofit me fast and some bolt on upgrades
When the drugs fade I'm still just a rust grave
But only on tough days and today's not one of 'em
Strong fleet of carbon machines I see struggle-in
Kids with strong magic think they have to muggle it
Vision is melting from the fumes and blisters
Increasingly hard to spot the machine killing triggers
Man it figures - all the exits are hidden
and no one has the concept to believe that they exist
Droids and girls are so happy getting pissed
When there's a hand that helps they only see a fist
Chorus
Subpar coding premium grade material
Customer service set to adversarial
Premature burial when system corrupts the signal
Gave the wires a jiggle but it's never quite that simple
Confidant to deadly friend in a couple of quick cycles
Courageous Autobot now a twisted faced psycho
Like geth on tilt - behind remote controlled reapers
The machine is amok - off to slice up its keepers
Like metal in a mosh pit – no kill switch or diagnostic
There's nothing we can do now - this one has lost it
Send the big guns - thank you for your co-operation
Robot invasion laser satellite to save us
Big brother’s past watching - now he's participating
Not just masturbation - we got full on penetration
No citizens are fooled – we know we're screwed if they continue
We know which plug to really pull
. . and we see the shrinking window
prepare for the inferno till we feel the dark crescendo
