Chased By Machines - The Stranger Lyrics

I need your confession
Your bad first impression
Your morbid obsessions
You're starting to sink

The pleasures all mine now
The gap in our time now
We've lost all our shine now
And now we can't think

We met all our gods here
A long time ago

We watched them all fall here
But now all we know

Are voids in a timelapse
Where we've become timeless
The pain in our spines have
Become all we know

Creatures of man
We run when we can
We cover our eyes to protect what we can

These buildings are marked
With lights in the dark
Illuminate death in the city of sparks

The Stranger will follow
The movements of sorrow
The person you knew died a long time ago

It follows your lead now
The knife in his sleeve now
The walls that surround him
Becomes all he knows

We don't follow your ways of ignorance
We don't follow the mantras you teach your children
We don't follow the things you see on television
We don't follow, we don't follow
We are chased
Chased by your machine
