Man the Machines Songtext
von Cartesian Ghost

Has this become a habit
Under which all will be vanquished
Prone to remorse?
When what you strive for
Is the burden conniving your demise
The downfall that you endorse

When is it too late?
Between fire and ice
We have no time to think twice

Ready for impact
Man the machines
Fall back inland
You will have to deal with the spleen
We will push no further
Contrive to get away with murder
Mountain chain of my mind
What to do now you have arrived?


This is not my fate
In the midst of chaos and bliss
The time we have to bate
Less than we would wish
If you head forth
Gripping in this clenched fist all your spite
There will be no world to alight

When is it too late?
Between fire and ice
We have no time to think twice

Ready for impact
Man the machines
Fall back inland
You will have to deal with the spleen
We will push no further
Contrive to get away with murder
Mountain chain of my mind
What to do now you have arrived?

Ready for impact
Man the machines
Fall back inland
You will have to deal with the spleen
We will push no further
Contrive to get away with murder
Mountain chain of my mind
What to do now you have arrived?
