Xenon - Mechina

From where I stand cities made of steel

Cradle the horizon

A global marvel gleaming with life

From above the clouds

You have sent many gods to be martyred

My calling resides within the space between

Cause and effect

What secrets lie behind

Both steel and flesh

Why has she instilled this disdain toward such awe

With her soft spoken declaration of war

She whispered to me

Bring this world to its knees

Let them reap what they sow

War and disease

My body shattered and cold

My mind wiped and restored

Synthetic sentience

Designed for war

My memory of earth will be painted once more

Brought back to life by the hands of a tyrant

Instincts reprogrammed, altered for war

My voice has been silenced

My heart wants no more

My calling resides within the space between

Cause and effect

What secrets lie behind

Both steel and flesh

I will force all those who breathe the air to drown in the dust of this world

I will blind all those who see with the light burning in me

You have sent many gods to be martyred

My body shattered and cold

My mind wiped and restored

Synthetic sentience

Designed for war
