Pick the front seat to see gravity

Working in the limb of a floating world

Fear the gifts that good men hold

With a flame to torch the world

Burn, die when some day's dawn

Kills your dazzling love

Fire, still burning, higher, although too late

Lyre, still learning, from a cartoon-like fate

From an animated hate

Homesick, homeland, homebound

Let your future shape

Seascape, soulscape, dreamscape

There’s no real escape

There’s a war between you and your heart

And your world is torn apart

And there is a machine in some people’s soul

That builds a soul in all machines

Fire, still burning, preaching about what you lose

My lyre, still learning, from your dead computer blues

Dead computer blues

I know you since the dawn of time

Loved your rhyming singing heart

Rainbow-colored water drops

Rusting your machine bolts

You may find a machine in your soul

That kills the souls in all machines

Fire, still burning, reminding that you never loose

My lyre, still waiting, to sing your dead computer blues
