The Missionary Position - Diamonds in a Dead Sky (2009)
Here Comes the Machine
It’s too late already
They won’t be happy till they own everything
And these days there’s no telling
Who’s the puppet and who’s pulling the strings
This is a wide open wasteland
Where it’s become a routine
For the vultures to circle a carcass
When it’s crawling with low self esteem
Here comes the machine
It’s here to make you feel like an individual
It’s here to sell you a dream
We’ve created a monster
And maybe now it’s got a mind of its own
Who knows what it’s after
We’re upside down in a high interest loan
This is a boredom killing business
So you won’t feel a thing
They’ll be giving us away for nothing
When we run out of gasoline
Here comes the machine
It’s here to make you feel like an individual
It’s here to sell you a dream
Here comes the machine
If the disease turns a profit
Why invent the vaccine
