Description Now it's the future
run through the towers
owned by old men
life gave nuclear powers

Now it's the year of
2019
steel skin showered
by fine currency

But look at me
as I fight the system
as the world around me falls
guess I'd barely missed 'em

I want only to prove
I'm stronger than The Machine
I know it's gonna be hard
For now it's just a dream

As the sky turns black
with the deadened mist
the immortals keep us
on a tight blacklist

We are the resistance now
This is who we are
I don't even know
if we'll ever get that far

But if we never try
there can never be salvation
Every wasting day
could be another free nation

I want only to prove
I'm stronger than The Machine
I know it's gonna be hard
For now it's just a dream

As the soil below me
corrupts into concrete tiles
not a single person
wishes to be seen for miles

If the time comes
where I must say goodbye
tell her that I loved her
even if I never die

As I make my way to the top
my barrels and my clips
packed to the brim right now
yet I miss her warm, soft lips

I want only to prove
I'm stronger than The Machine
I know it's gonna be hard
For now it's just a dream
but even if it seems
like I'm low enough on steam
I gotta do what's right
and dismantle The Machine

I don't mean to be a mess
it's just the way it looks I swear
and still maybe as I bleed
from the top, she may have cared
I want only to prove
I'm stronger than The Machine
I know it's gonna be hard
For now it's just a dream
but even if it seems
like I'm low enough on steam
I gotta do what's right
and dismantle The Machine
nut if then she can still love me
there is hope left in this world
no one more important for me
than you, girl

As the Storm blows inward
I can't help myself but think
maybe I was cursed to drip
away this crimson ink

If I had more time out there
I would've loved to say farewell
But as I guess I've said
Only fate and time will tell

I want only to prove
I'm stronger than The Machine
I know it's gonna be hard
For now it's just a dream
