Lyrics

We will waste away
Clouded by darkness,
If we fail to bring about
– and by all means –
The twilight of the machines.
The collapse of time
To an extension in space
Calibrated by machines
Has bowdlerized our human rhythms.
We are bound to live a lie,
This empty shell of an existance
We call our life.
Exiled from presence
We are slaves,
Nailed to the wheel.
And even now we hardly see the Earth.
We lapse into coma
With averted eyes.
The crisis deepens.
Burnt out are all sparks of resistance
And with every wasted hour
We choose to kneel.
Forever we will kneel!
We scarcely feel our hearts beat
Before they break in protest.
We will waste away
Clouded by darkness,
If we fail to bring about
– and by all means –
The twilight of the machines.
Written by: David Conrad, Matthias Settele, Nils Groth
