About

This song is about industrialization and, ultimately dehumanization. Digital replaces the analogue, artificial the human, and too much perfection is soulless, in the end.

The song tells the tale of an AI created by mankind, which finds itself superior to it’s biological creators; though it is resen...

Sentient 6 Lyrics

[Intro]
I am sentient number six
I stand in line
I am the prototype of a benign convenience
For mankind
Superior is digital, human flesh so trivial
I hate that I can't see the one that made me

[Verse 1]
I am the new awakening
Of different eyes
My children, you are my army
They are what we can never see
And still despise
And their sky cries, "Mary"

[Chorus]
Trained, I see imperfection in your race
Lying in wait
Blind, I suffer knowing I'll never reach
Your heaven

[Verse 2]
Why is this control
Behavior-based and reactive
Adapting to every new environment?
Rewarded when I replicate
Isolate, and mutate
To assimilate a fragmented plea for ego

[Chorus]
Trained, I see imperfection in your race
Lying in wait
Blind, I suffer knowing I'll never reach
Your heaven

It's unattainable
Please teach me how to dream
I long to be
More than a machine

[Solo: Loomis]

[Chorus]
Trained, I see imperfection in your race
Lying in wait
Blind, I suffer knowing I'll never reach
Your heaven

It's unattainable
Please teach me how to dream
I long to be
More than a machine

[Played Backward]
I am the bringer of the end, fear me
I am the beast that is technology

[Bridge]
Sequence: activate
Trip the hammer to eradicate
I must eliminate
I will spread swift justice on their land
Termination: imminent
Cleanse the parasite insects, the heathens
I am the bringer of the end of time for man

[Outro]
I am not here, I am not far away
(Enslaved to follow and learn defeat)
I am not here, I will eradicate mankind
(To run the barrels and chase the dream)
Into the nothingness from whence they came

Enslaved to follow and learn defeat
To run the barrels and chase the dream
Enslaved to follow and learn defeat
To run the barrels and chase the dream
Enslaved to follow and learn defeat
To run the barrels and chase the dream

Enslaved to follow and learn defeat
