Tearing through my second skin
All the lies, all the sin
Shed the past to bring the future
Close your eyes and seduce her
Memories are infinite
Nothing I will ever regret
Tearing through my second skin
I see my new life begin
Spread the disease
And bring it onto me
Fall to your knees
Setting yourself free
We are machines
Born to die, work, cry
By artificial means
That's the way we live our lives
Unplug the tube that holds me here
In this world that I fear
Break the cycle of life in vain
Take the pills to soothe your pain
I never could understand
How to reach out and take your hand
Emotions are so volatile
Nothing's ever that worthwhile
Spread the disease
And bring it onto me
Fall to your knees
Setting yourself free
We are machines
Born to die, work, cry
By artificial means
That's the way we live our lives
