117
I see a future cold as ice
where all the love has gone.
I see a race that pays the price
for everything it’s done.
I see shadows of giant machines
cast upon the land.
I see a world where kings nor queens
but chips are in command.
COMPUTER...COMPUTER...COMPUTER...
COMPUTER REIGN
Now the end has just begun,
technology has won.
And it cannot be undone.
There will be nowhere to run…
Now the damage has been done
GAME OVER! GAME OVER!
I see a game gone out of hand.
And memories erased.
I see a programmed master plan
and man will be replaced.
I see a planet die in space
and slowly fade away
I see the end of the human race
there has to be a way.
