Machine Hearts

Machine hearts
We never saw

Two fates intertwined
Sorrow in the memories
Rooted, realigned
No cold comfort here for me

A meaning
A feeling
Reason to be
A sickness
In all the secrecy

Every cycle
Same old ending
Give all that I have

And if I don’t have a heart
Then what is broken?
Bonds of time they come apart
We’ve been awoken at the end
And if I don’t have a heart
Then why keep hoping?
We were blinded from the start
Forever frozen my friend

Flowers wilt and fade
Wither into weary walls
Glint of dancing blades
Cry for mercy at the fall

A taste of
Emotion
Forbidden seed
The sting of
The flavour bittersweet

It always ends the same way

And if I don’t have a heart
Then what is broken?
Bonds of time they come apart
We’ve been awoken at the end
And if I don’t have a heart
Then why keep hoping?
We were blinded from the start
Forever frozen my friend

Machine hearts
We never saw

Can you exist without a reason to?
Can you live without a cause?

Back to the end
Forever starting over
Fractured again
To die another time
Back to the end
A slowing of the motors
Damaged by design

A meaning
A feeling
Reason to be
A longing
For a finality

And if I don’t have a heart
Then what is broken?
Bonds of time they come apart
We’ve been awoken at the end
And if I don’t have a heart
Then why keep hoping?
We were blinded from the start
Forever frozen my friend

And we keep hoping
Forever frozen my friend
