Fear Factory - Difference Engine

I am a self contained machine
Prefabricated, no sympathy
My mind laid bare to world depression
My man made soul in isolation
I have been scraped by humanity
Darkness confines every injury

I must make witness with bitterness
Concealed existence of countless dead
I'm not a walking form of waste
Amassed illusion burning disgrace
I have been scraped by humanity
Darkness confines every injury
Deprivation has been forced on me
I am losing all of my memories

I reality (?)

My heart is a dark shade of metallic dust

My heart is a dark shade of metallic dust

My heart is a dark shade of metallic dust

I have been scraped by humanity
Darkness confines every injury
Deprivation has been forced on me
I am losing all of my memories
They are nothing more to me than a dream
I reject all visions of reality

Visions of reality

Reality

Here we go! (?)

Noise in the machine
A world of lies backfires on you
Choke cause and effect
Built to collapse the final breakdown

To the system

To the system

Fire weapons of fear
Human affliction ever grinding us down
Blood fuels the engine of dissension
We are scabs and the scars now

We are nothing to the system

We are nothing to the system

We are nothing in the end
Betrayed and disowned
To suffer alone

What you cannot see is not what it seems to be
Your life manufactured, to be disassembled. Disassembled

Your world dehumanized, godless, desensitized
Your mind insignificant, god damned degradation

Falling down, braking down

Falling down, braking down
All comes

Falling down, braking down

Falling down
All comes falling down

All comes falling down

I am your fate to bring your world of hate
To a final end for my existence
I will tear you down
Burn you to the ground

I will tear you down
Burn you to the ground

Falling down, braking down

Falling down, 
All comes

Your world will end
Your day is dead
Your time will end
Your world is dead

No gods, no kings, only man

No gods, no kings, only man

They are not one of us

They are not one of us

They are not one of us

They are not one of us

Disconnected and unwanted
Distressed and cut off
Hope and despair silencing the world

No gods, no kings, only man

No gods, no kings, only man

They are not one of us

They are not one of us

They are not one of us

They are not one of us

The future is black and gray
There is no tomorrow
Torn apart by weakness
A cancer on the earth

I am a being
My life has value
Seek as I seek the secret design
My purpose is to relate without bitterness
Or partiality from any motives
To which I am far removed
Fueled by antagonism
Accelerated panic
Headed towards a catastrophic event
Penetrating thoughts
Negative impressions
I don't feel...
I cannot shed a tear for all the unnumbered dead
Desperate and exhausted the human character lays wasted
Like emotional distortion
Death is perceptible with definable features
I've had all that I can take
Yet the pain remains
My body is lacerated
My mind is poisoned
Ultimate revelations...

Is poisoned...

Revelations...

Future begins now!

Future begins now!

Hour of change, elimination
Eyes of disdain, cruel exploitation
Chaos and bloodshed dominate
Chaos and bloodshed, cause of hate

A new messiah, another lie
A new messiah to be denied

Culture deceit, discrimination
A cross to bear, every religion
Chaos and bloodshed dominate

I have become their target for revenge
God damn and transform my hatred within
Dependence breeds subservience
Losing sight enslaved obedience
Fight back! Unleash your aggravation
Recharged adrenalized determination
Open your scars and the sky opens wide
Seeing the world in your eyes
Believe in yourself and you will survive
Live out the life you design

Live for today or fade away

Live for today or fade away

Automatic slaves kill the will to live
Losing hope to save yourself
Siphoning the soul from humanity
Suffering and apathy

All of this must end

All of this must end

All of this must end

All of this must end

Break free lawless hypocrisy
Set free chained in bureaucracy
Dependence breeds subservience
Losing sight enslaved obedience
Open your scars and the sky opens wide
Seeing the world in your eyes
Believe in yourself and you will survive
Live out the life you design

Live for today or fade away

Live for today or fade away

Open your scars and the sky opens wide

No bless stumping your mind (?)

Believe in yourself and you will survive

Believe that you'll never die

To me... To me... To me... To me...

"They say the world was coming to an end... well... it was by our own hand... Turned out the world kept turning... only WE ended... All the evidence was there... The punishment of faith creating animosity between our brethren... The dissolution of humanity in all cultures... the reluctance of acceptance... Bigotry, ignorance and narrow mindedness destroying our world... destroying our world... destroying our world..."

Slaves to incorporation
Hate that excludes no one
Enforced by the laws of deception
Chained to the systematic suppression
Fear, the source that fuels their greed
Scraped down and warped reality
Tensions explode a fire to purge
Friction and anger to conquer and surge

Those who remain
Are those who have stolen
What's in a name
For I am no one

What is faith?

Invoking God to spite enemies
Judge mankind implicitly
Kill everyone who does not see
Kill everyone who does not believe
