Dearest Machine

The Perfect Wake


Dearest Machine:

You've lost
your soul to be so

artificial,lost in endless
tragedy.
An empty shell..painted
smiles..
no words to call your
own.
With strings that pull and
tear the 
flesh right from your
bones.

Dance for me..show me
what it's like to
be afraid to
see just what you are.
You've
taken lust to far.

Fall to your
knees, frail and diseased.
You've
learned that drudgery makes
great
for company. You throw
yourself
away..They beg for you
to stay..
Finding solace between
your legs.

Dance for me..show
me what it's like to 
be afraid
to see just what you are.
You've
taken lust too far.

One day I
hope you..hold your head up
high.
Wake up before you..kiss
this world goodbye.

My dearest
machine,oh will you come
clean?

Dance for me..show me
what it's like to be
ashamed to
be just what you are..
You've
taken this too far.
