11-0101 (Allen Cox)
The world is crying
Deep in pain
It gets no easier
To face another day
Few make decisions
No thought to consequence
We need a problem solver
Spare no expense
The day may come
When we're just vegetables
Mindless frames
Waiting for instructions
You can't think no more
Scramble for your laptop
Key in your password
Now you can talk
11-0101
I'll give you birth my son
A machine to think for us
It might think for itself
11-0101
We're living on a crumb
Save our world
Because we're too dumb

S.O.S. (Allen Cox)
Get your facts in a flash
Is that quick enough
Give us more speed
Though we need more love
The bottom line
Below the ground
A secret machine
We can't breathe a sound
For everything ever known and heard
It wants a file
They know who you are
And they know where you're at
If you have a strange feeling
Someone is watching you
There is a place for you
Deep within the hard drive
The softer we become
The larger that it grows
Building up a network
On line we go
Software in action
All channels opened up
Testing 1-2-3
The link has been done
I fear for my fellow man when it takes control
It wants to solve society's problems overload
(Narrative)
Could I ever be forgiven for this grave sin I have created
Greed blinded my eyes, but now I see the error of my ways.
The only way out is death, but I could never do that to my wife
So tonight I will go into hiding to buy a few last precious hours
But soon the computer's racks of hardware will track me down,
And brainwash me as well for it's cause.
(Chorus)
S.O.S.
We're on the brink
S.O.S.
Endangered by a machine
S.O.S.
Sound the alarm
S.O.S.
Warn them all
Soon our lives won't be the same
No one can hide from the mainframe
Sonic drives, super chips
Soon it will start thinking for itself
There's no end to what it could do
With endless knowledge and logic as a rule
It might make you poor
Or a criminal
You'll bow to it's panels
Worship terminals
Everyone wants a dream
But don't realize
The human factors for a perfect life
The Earth, sun and rain
It's all we really need
But we keep losing sight in evil's greed
Greed...
I'm headed South to a place underground
It's there that I'll hide out
Enjoy these final days
For I know I am doomed
I know what's real but the World's in doubt
I hold my wife
And I hold her tight
She's shivering, we're both filled with fright
I send out a message by radio
Send out a message, tapped out in code
Decipher my codes and you'll hear my sounds
You must stop it
Shut the system down
I tried to warn them
But they wouldn't listen
Out for a paycheck and a position
It starts a search for my run
It wants to find me
My only son
It wants me in it's scheme of things
To rule and control all that we know
Soon we will be replaced
By a logical society
Our only purpose will be...
The computer's needs
A guarded complex and they deny it exist
Big money rolling
The budget was fixed
There is no way to save man kind
Our way will be lost
Ignorance blind
Look in the screen, and look carefully
Follow the order, bring the smart ones to me
Hypnotic power, our weak minds are torn
I hold my wife as our time grows short

I Am The Universe (Allen Cox)
You can be my breath
And my eyes that see
But don't look in the depths
Just look our way
The sign is now posted
And you know your limits man
Don't try to stand out
Just get back in line
(Chorus)
I'm the only thing, the one to please
I'm your only cause, you don't speak
You were never born to think
But just for the cause
I am the Universe
Strap across your back
You'll bare another scar
A glitch in your program
Why can't you understand
Were is the new one?
Kill mary jane
And present survivors
I'm their universe
(Chorus)
You will-YOU WILL
The order has been done
No blink to your eyes
Just a blank stare
Speak not and perform
There is a goal in mind
I am the universe
And you are just mankind
(Chorus)

Separation (Allen Cox)
All we have is us
And this fear inside
The World's no longer ours
We can't go outside
They have the information
They know where we are
My friends and neighbors gone
Now in line awaiting brainwash
They tell us we'll evolve
But we're only conquered
A satellite fix
Detects my body heat
Their coming for me
To take me away
Hiding from the dark
In the world of holocaust
Evil made the deal
For a man-made disaster
Machines with human slaves
We bow before invention
We'll be their drones
Or we'll be executed at will
Only faith to keep me strong
Soon they will find us
Separation won't be long
I hold you in my arms
And we pray till dawn
Their coming for me
To take me away
Hiding from the dark
In this world of holocaust
Hide in your places
Cruelty on their minds
Make love to my wife
For the final time
The beast may stand before us
Our flesh is his to take
But nothing could ever kill our love
Take my identity
Erase my soul and personality
The only thought, intelligence
Searching for some perfect world
Their coming for me
To take me away
Their banging on my door
Their shouting out my name
My devices bought me a little time
They separate us...
As we say goodbye

New Reality (Allen Cox)
Took away with the hundreds
I see her face for the last time
Looking through a window
All we can do is cry
What will become of me
And what of my life?
Off the bus, shoved in a line
Taking the elevator out of time
I see my life pass before me
My mind is in turmoil
These horrors we hear and see
It's a new reality
The mainframe wants all we have
I'm captured now I await
What will be my new place in...
This new reality
The underground is full of cages
I spot the President
His hands clutched on cell bars
Looking in a blank stare
I think back on how tuff it was
But I'd sure go back
Walk the panels and circuit boards
Don't give us feelings
Just give us fact
Strapped to a chair
Electrodes hooked to my brain
I feel my memories drain
And I'm programmed for the new way
I see my life pass before me
My mind is wiped clean
Of all my hopes and dreams-it's
A new reality
Like the machines, I have no feeling
And logic is my only thought
My flesh no longer mine in...
This new reality
Just like a born instinct
Everyday I build the machines
It's all I know
It's all I live for
Making families of droids
And unleashing them to this new world
A world of machines
Now they even think for us
This is a life as we won't know it
There is no mind of your own
I'm just like it's drones in...
This new reality
It's only logical that...
Feelings are so senseless
There's nothing special in this...
New reality

The Mainframe (Allen Cox)
In a world of chaos
Only one can think
Look to the monitor
You're on the brink
Don't use your brain
It's a waste of time
If you need to know
Just get on line
Linked by a network
Who cares anymore?
Put your face in the camera
Punch in the fax
Linked by a wire
No human touch
Throw a kiss out the window
But watch your back
These racks of hardware
Are man-made brains
Gaining information
While we go insane
Don't ask a question
No one's smart enough
It has no feeling
Can it hurt us?
Linked to a network
No compassion
Shed a tear for humanity
And punch in the facts
Linked by a wire
Feel no moods
Just ask the mainframe
It knows the truth
Breaking down the walls
Searching all the systems
Gaining total control
No one would listen
It does all our thinking
And all our jobs
We sit on our asses
While our lives are robbed
Linked by a network
Facts on a silver platter
All the human gather
The server feeds their brains
Don't go outside
Tap into the mainframe
Sit back my friend
Where shall we go today?

Imminent Extinction (Allen Cox)
We make thousands of droids
They are machines just like us
With a programmed scheme
Soon it will set us free...
Assimilation, annihilation
Such cruelty
The slaughter of mankind
When there is no need
We'll be annihilated
When the system is self-sufficient
No need for the living
We'll be executed
Our figures assimilated
Just like the others we've known
Just another clone
I hook the robot to a screaming child's mind
Two droids hold her still as I install the electrodes
Then I walk behind the panels
I pull the switch to transfer
Then suddenly all is quiet as she can no longer feel danger
(Chorus)
And when there's no need
The machine will set us free
And I'll be happy to
Escape this circuit hell
One after one they all go down
Yeah I have my orders
But somehow I know that
All this will come to an end
And now there's no way that we an save mankind
Such ignorance has led us to-such a pointless end
I draw the syringe
She don't even flinch
I inject the needle
She falls off to sleep
(Repeat Chorus)

Program Glitch (Allen Cox)
A psychic grabs my hand
She says 'only you know who you are'
I didn't know what she'd meant
And then later on...
Somehow her words echoed through my brainwashed mind
Laying on my cot
All night I tossed and turned
I look at my image
As I shave my face
I hear her voice again
A glitch in my program
Pictures before my eyes
My wife I see her
The past displayed before
Now I remember
I must not let them know
I must play my role
With the computer's destruction
As my new goal
I erase the minds of
Humanoids
But my job will soon end
Tonight I hack the mainframe
I enter all the codes
Hacking down the trees
Breaking down the walls
Spreading the disease
Soon the system will be sick
Infiltrated
Program for self-destruction
It's your turn for annihilation
I never had a child
An offspring to call my own
Thus I regret I must kill my only son
But how dare you...
Betray the mind of your creator
I wonder where they are
All the ones of my dream
Could they be dead?
Or just an assimilation
Download the virus
May this machine be damned
Only one is perfect
And only one is pure
So this is what we got
Computer man
Now I speak and see
A glitch in my program
Logging off to sleep
I execute my plan
A reverse of feelings
A glitch in my program

Digital Cleansing (Allen Cox)
Now you know the pain
I can't save you now
You have lost and I have won
Your holocost is gone
Robots fall to the ground
In a chaotic sound
Digital cleansing
As I shut your systems down
(Chorus 1)
11-0101
You know me as your son
11-0102
How can you just ignore
I'm dying, circuits short
Programmed to abort
11-0101
You must die my son
Racks will freeze
Drives in a jam
Now you feel a need
I don't give a damn
(Repeat Chorus 1)
Slowly you lose control
No more grip on our souls
Such a naughty boy to think
That you could have me
Such a mindless scheme
A technical dream
Death to big brother
Death to my son
(Chorus 2)
11-0101
Look at what you've done
You took my wife
Ruined our lives
11-0101
Your wires are growing numb
11-0101
Goodbye my son
