Survival Machines - Brighter Than A Thousand Suns

Nature red

In tooth and claw

Forgive us our fatal flaws

Count your sins

And clench your fists

But your veins have built a prison

Bound by skin

And broken limbs

We break the shell we’re hiding in

We are more than our bodies

We are more than we’ve become

We are more than our bodies

We are immaterial

These scars won’t sever our ties

Because this flesh is just a disguise

Though breathless lungs and blinded eyes

May leave us slaves to the design

And when all we’re worth

Is swallowed by a hungry earth

Our fears will drown in the ocean’s thirst

And the stars will cradle our rebirth

We are more than our bodies

We are more than we’ve become

We are more than our bodies

We are immaterial

And when nothing’s left

We will break the bonds of flesh

Soon the weave these sinews spun

Will melt into the sun

This won’t last forever

This won’t last forever

When all is said and done

Who will speak for everyone?

This won’t last forever

This won’t last forever

We are more than our bodies

We are more than we’ve become

We are more than our bodies

We are immaterial

This won’t last forever
