Mendel's machines replicate in the night
in the black iron prison of st. augustine's light
he's paying the bills and they're doing him proud
they can float their burnt offerings on assembler clouds
With omega point in the sight
the new franklin's fly their kites
and the post modern empire is ended tonight
From history
the flood of counterfeits released
the black cloud
reductionism and the beast
automatons gather all the pieces
so the world may be increased
in simulation jubilation
for the deceased...
Spray-on clothes and diamond jaws
wrinkles smoothed by nanoclaws
With my machines i can dispatch you
from this world without a trace
our nostalgia ghosts are ready to take your place
Content-shifting shopping malls
gasoline trees and walk-through walls
None of them knew...
I feel the gray goo boiling my blood
as i watch the dead rise up out of the earth
try to hide from the lies as they all come true
Deus absconditus
deus nullus deus nisi deus
I feel the gray goo boiling my blood
as the fenris wolf slowly bites through his chain
try to hide the myth as it becomes a man
None of them knew they were robots
Buying an x or an o
in state craft tic tac toe
cats game for joe blo
Post industrial bliss
a binary hug or kiss
can be wrung from utility mist
They stole the great arcanum
the secret fire
moloch found his gold
for the new empire
once again
the necrophage becomes saint
Lindy hop around the truth
jump back wolf pack attack
slap back white shark attack
swingin' up there in the noose
jump back wolf pack attack
slap back white shark attack
Phased array diffraction nets
from full-wall paint-on tv sets
migratory home sublets
and time shared diamond fiber sets
Recombinant logos keys
bitic qabalistic trees
I feel the gray goo boiling my blood
as leviathan and his bugs freeze the sea
try to save the world by immolating myself
From history
the flood of counterfeits released
the black cloud
the resurrection of the deceased
automotons gather all the pieces
so the world may be increased
in simulation jubilation
for the builders
of the body of the beast
