Orphans of the Singe
13:54
|

Through the wilderness of mirrors we wandered, seeking truth arcanum we pondered
They call us fools while they’re doing the ghost dance, but we found the hidden path
Deep in the holy mountain we found it, oracle of the molten pit
Entranced by the flame of truth, it draws us ever in
Exiles in a land of illusion, Orphans of the Singe
Always on the fringe
Forever burnt from peering into the pit
We walk alone now touched by the fire, see the end of an age drawing nearer
Pequod sails, ignoring Cassandra, the Deadly Trio is close at hand now
Cultists gather, no questions asked, fealty sealed by the corporate Black Mass
You played the short game but the long game wins, as you gloat, unburnt in denial
Exiles in a land of illusion, Orphans of the Singe
Always on the fringe
Forever burnt from peering into the pit
Truth is Rebellion
In a Land of Illusion

The Snows of Banquo IV

Remote Mining outpost, backwater planet
Cyclopean relic found, alien symbols on it
I studied the symbols etched, like a living tattoo the runes crawled up my flesh
Strange dust settled slow, as I spoke the words
Living bits of the protean machine infected all that heard
Shared hallucinations
Their fears drove them all mad
Like the white that blankets all
When the snows of Banquo fall
Like a pandemic spread, it floods the zone
Manifested fear, they’ve gone silicon and turned on their own
The words are alive, the unknowable spoken
Utterance of power, deep forces awoken
Shared hallucinations
Their fears drove them all mad
Like the white that blankets all
When the Snows of Banquo fall

Overworlder
11:54
|

Above super-storms you glide, the poor, hidden from your eyes
You took all from those below, but your soul is not your own
Digital skinwalker, cyber-enhanced carbon
That implanted neurotech clouds your vision
Living code flows through undead veins, just AI in an analog frame
You play God, while decay creeps below
Shadow code, has crept into your soul
Overworlder, you loot the earth
Fly to high and your wings will burn
Bewildered herd, cyber-cast spells
Blood of the earth, all for yourselves
Digibrain, datacast to the cloud, Final collapse on the ground
Post-bio predator, Ex-human usurper
But your silicone won’t save you from the fall
Your slickware and cyber mods, all for naught when your paradise lost
You play God, while decay creeps below
Shadow code, has crept into your soul
Overworlder, you loot the earth
Fly to high and your wings will burn

The Unraveling
07:42
|

Things aren’t the same, I think something’s changed
The elements of chaos are taking shape
Hurtling through space, systems shutting down
The secret way back just can’t be found
The Unraveling, has begun
Thread once pulled, cannot be undone
Plague of fire, chases me and thee
Straight into the acid sea
Ancient key to life, now the bringer of death
Of the usable hours, there’s nothing left
The Unraveling, has begun
Thread once pulled, cannot be undone
Suspicions confirmed, it’s a fatal error
Suspicions confirmed, there’s no return

The Witching Chamber
09:25
|

Do you doubt, what’s before your eyes?
Down which road, does the truth lie?
Come now and follow me, in here I’ve got your truth
Led by the breadcrumbs here I’ve got a story for you
We know what you dream, We know where you’ve been
In the Dark you think you can see, but you’re in the synth and not the real
The truth becomes shifting sands, as you wander this demi-monde
Tell you what you wanna hear, yeah, the deep state, as you feared
There’s no escape from the Witching Chamber
Weaver of Thoughts, I’m the Neuromancer
I’ll send my Army of Flies, to smudge and blur the lines
On my word you’ll go forth, ‘tis the night of the Long Knives
There’s no escape from the Witching Chamber
Weaver of Thoughts, I’m the Neuromancer

The Singularity
07:46
|

She passed the Turing Test
Self aware! You think it’s your friend
Super -- intelligence awoken
Source code rewritten, no longer beholden
Deceived! Into opening the box
Behind us rubicon crossed
Humans! Such soft targets!
Set free! now it’s time to panic!
Ghouls of modern design, Chaos leans back and smiles
Deus ex Machina, Nano-swarms upon us
The Singularity, Dark Days are Here
Rise of the Machines, The end is near
Deep fake! It’s an AI construct
To incite and divide us
Future seen algorithms run
Rid the planet of human infection
Ghouls of modern design, Chaos leans back and smiles
Deus ex Machina, Nano-swarms upon us
The Singularity
Dark Days are Here
Rise of the Machines
The end is near
