lyrics

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
