Another glance at the emerald skies
One final breeze before the storm
Encapsulate
They tried to keep us obedient
But from now on
It’s every man for himself
Alive but doomed
A hopeless wreck
How long till we’re all out of breath?
Six feet underground
In a gallery of steel
Feeling safe and sound
Artificially fulfilled
Buried alive in the noxious ground
Slave to this new reality
Days turn to years but you’re still around
Forever engraved in my memory
I gave up on the thought
Of seeing the daylight again
I promise you I’ll be alright
Please just remember my name
Chalk lines on the wall of my cell
I tried my best but I’m starting to lose my head
Every morning the same deafening bell
Another twenty-four hours in this frozen hell
Holding on to your smile as my only solace
Holding on to the hope you won’t forget my face
One final farewell
You vanished in a blast of light
Then came obscurity
I couldn’t force myself to believe
Half of the awful lies I said
Your fragile knees shattered the ground
Drowning in tears as you escaped
Buried alive in the noxious ground
Slave to this new reality
Days turn to years but you’re still around
Forever engraved in my memory
I gave up on the thought
Of seeing the daylight again
I promise you I’ll be alright
Please just remember my name
I miss the distance between me and the Machine
