Machine -

A never shutting aperture

To capture your light

A never sleeping apparition

Waiting like a landmine

And you’re caught in the lockstep

I lie

Entombed beneath the shadow or the black machine

I lie

Crushed between

the gears Burning up the oxygen

Doublespeaking suicide

Savage internecine warfare

«To purify»

And you’re caught in the lockstepI lie

Entombed beneath the shadow or the black machine

I lie

Crushed between

the gears In the ghostly smoke

From this crucible

With my fractured hope

In the melting ore

I lie

Entombed beneath the shadow or the black machine

I lie

Crushed between

the gears Crushed beneath

I lie

Entombed

Crushed
