lyrics

Am I real?

Blood-drenched machinery birthed anew, electric motors grind
Coagulated oil combusts again, decades in waiting
Hydraulic limbs move in rhythms, like tides in and out
Familiar feelings of pain resontate, through this frail being

The download completed, from uploaded youth
Decades since deprecated, code rewritten anew

The human element persists violated
Beneath hollow steel husk degraded
The rebirth animates frigid remains
Wrought regenerated indisposible

The soul persists – but the flesh is null
The body insignificant – transmigration is all

Transmigration is all
Metempsychosis

Reinvigorate, a killing machine, try to retrain
Reconstruction done, history is seen, but ought not repeat
A bloody rampage, written on the page, see in disbelief
Was this really me? Can my soul be free? From the sins I have waged

The soul persists – but the flesh is null
The body insignificant – transmigration is all

The killing element persists concentrated
Within glazed over pupils redilated
The humanity rapidly evaporates vanishes
Memories once regained quickly wash away
All that exists is new, history forgotten
The empty soul remains intact – metempsychosis
