[Verse 1: Steve Von Till]
Progress is not progress
It is everlasting destruction
Technology is backwards
[Chorus: Steve Von Till]
Born of machine
Worship machine
Slave to machine
Become machine
[Verse 2: Steve Von Till]
Modern civilization
A contradiction in terms
In terms of survival
[Refrain: Steve Von Till]
Are we alone?
Are we alone?
Are we alone?
Are we alone?
[Verse 3: Steve Von Till]
Man is made to obey thee
Are we nothing but living
Machine: a dead hand
It's work expresses death
No spirit in it's skeletal framework
The falsification of Man: to what end?
To what end?
[Chorus: Steve Von Till]
Born of machine
Worship machine
Slave to machine
Become machine
[Bridge: Steve Von Till]
Perverted ingenuity of Man
Fools we've lost out earthly wisdom
Not the way of nature
In a man-made state of disarray
Disarray
Disarray
Disarray
[Refrain: Steve Von Till]
Are we alone?
Are we alone?
Are we alone?
Are we alone?
[Refrain: Steve Von Till]
Disarray
Disarray
Disarray
Disarray
[Outro: Steve Von Till]
