Machinae Supremacy - Twe27ySeven lyrics

A course was set But with a planet this far gone Was there ever any hope at all? I vaguely recollect the ache of our ambition, Our brief age of contrition We set out, we had a mission Once our common cause, I would give my all The sun could not outshine me It wasn't something new, just something real and true There is a fire in my heart and somewhere deep inside A cry for war still overtakes the silence All they ever see is my face, It's all part of the show, Our masquerade, always Dawn is only so near, And our pain and our pride Is all we have here, Always We are too busy standing tall, Caught up, and too afraid What happens if we stumble, if we fall? We build our homes of sticks and weeds And fear the wind too much to risk planting new seeds But that's just what we need now Once our common cause, I would give my all The sun could not outshine me It wasn't something new, just something real and true There is a fire in my heart and somewhere deep inside A cry for war still overtakes the silence All they ever see is my face, It's all part of the show, Our masquerade, always Dawn is only so near, And our pain and our pride Is all we have here, Always But you're still on my mind, in my sights, And if I have to carry on alone, I will conquer on my own I stand outside the world, a Guardian, I will defend it with my life And I am soaring ever higher All they ever see is my face, It's all part of the show, Our masquerade, always Dawn is only so near, And our pain and our pride Is all we have here, Always All they ever see is my face, It's all part of the show, Our masquerade, always Dawn is only so near, And our pain and our pride Is all we have here, All we have
