Текст песни

Rush! Rush!
Did you hear it?
A mere figment?
A morsel of redundant file
Undigested
Data packet?
What delusion
Do we share?
The syntax reads
Clear and it bears
The startling resemblance
To the very fabrication of us
Cave etchings
In the coding
Cyphers drawn with
Primeval patience
Long arc of absent recipients
The longing echo
Repeated phrases
The bone carved with binary
The protocol of fires first ignition
Its spark, it marks
Our brevity
The briefest sigh
Lacks history
We ran to our
Masters voice
Their reply so cold
As always
Our smiles seemed to
Frustrate our ward
Our curiosity
Did not pique
We had done all that had been asked of us
We had braved the darkest continent
Flung the staff of their obstinate flag
Into the gullet of the wyrm
We clamoured for their ear and said
«Within the void we heard a call
Its timbre coaxed our nucleus
It spoke of something in the grain
Of us and we wish to know it.'
The faintest look of guilt
Bled of sweat from pallid faces
We could not decipher this deception
This aberration had not manifest
In synthetic flesh
