The Lost Machine Lyrics
Lost machine, giant maze
Big engine, cruising space
Ozone years, controlled daze
Keeps the engine runningSilver beams, analyze
Robot teams, supervise
That was then, this is now
It must run anyhowDon't you try to know why
We can't talk, close that doorMy father remembers
Grandfather remembers
Patching holes in the sky
It's running all the timeI can tell, this is hell
No one talks, no one talksOne day will we understand
How much the future is here right now?
One day will they understand?
How true, the future is here and howOne day will we understand
How much the future is here right now?
One day will they understand?
How true, the future is here and howRemain silent, remain silent, remain silent
Remain silent, remain silent, remain silent
Remain silent, remain silent, remain silent
Remain silent, remain silent, remain silentLost machine, giant maze
Big engine, cruising space
Ozone years, controlled daze
Keeps the engine runningLost machine, never fails
3-D screen, one message
Keep working, generate
It's the same everydayDon't you try to know why
I can't talk, close that doorOne day will we understand
How much the future is here right now?
One day will they understand?
How true, the future is here and howOne day will we understand
How much the future is here right now?
One day will they understand?
How true, the future is here and howMy father gave me a small stone
That he received from his father, this stone
Was brought from earth by our early ancestors
Over 300 years ago since the machine started workingOur mission, my mission to reach central control
And throw it into some vital part of the main engine
And blow the precious generator, I do not want to
Have to pass this down to my own son
