Mechanical Youth - The Koffin Kats

Orphans of a long forgotten world

A past of slaves who never would revolt

They follow orders the system still commands

The youth rebuild a city meant for man

Mainframe guides their hands

Through a toxic never land

Can’t abort the programs now

Mechanical youth, marching on

Solar charge not so effective now

Darkness beneath the poisoned clouds

The youth won’t stop themselves from slowing now

The youth can’t make directives of their own

Short circuits, rusting frames

Created by imperfect beings

Fending for hydraulic oil

Mechanical youth, burning out

They are alone and shutting down

Sorted remains wait for the masters

To come home
