Words and Music by Rick Mester
[Verse]
It’s alright
It’s OK
Everything is underway
It’s one night
It’s today
We have all been killed this way
Tears of joy
Tears of pain
For hope and love we will restrain
Epic ploy
Plot to gain
Scratching at this wretched stain
[Chorus]
The secrets in the machine
The eyes of the lies and the in between
The secrets in the machine
The evolution was never seen
[Verse]
Stepping out
Falling back
Everything under attack
Hold it out
Hold it in
It is the sixth deadly sin
Wretched hope
Human thought
We’re sold before we are bought
One more time
Close your eyes
He who breathes also dies
[Chorus]
The secrets in the machine
The eyes of the lies and the in between
The secrets in the machine
The evolution was never seen
