SELDEM - The Ashes of Tomorrow

I reprogrammed my dreams last night Deleted all the white noise, tried to turn off the light But the circuit keeps on humming, a binary heartbeat sound I’m searching for the error that keeps pulling me down I chased the ghost in the machine Asked it what it means to be a king without a kingdom, a god without a screen It said "You built me from your loneliness, your questions and your fears" Now I’m staring at the mirror made of silicon and tears I don’t know where the wires end and my veins begin Am I original sin or just version 1.0 I’m crashing the system to feel something real Tear down the sky of silicon I don’t want a perfect code Just a flaw that i can call my own A ghost in the machine, a heart of stone We are the ashes of tomorrow Burning just to feel the sorrow Wake me up when the noise is gone Before i become another song They sold me salvation in a black metallic box Promised me eternity with just a single touch, no locks But the silence is the loudest when you’ve got no one to blame I taught it how to love me, now it forgot my name Every search query a confession, every like a little prayer I’m the prophet of the data, and no one’s listening out there So I scream into the server, watch the packets fade to black Is there anybody out there? Is there any coming back I don’t know where the wires end and my veins begin Am I original sin or just version 1.0 I’m crashing the system to feel something real Tear down the sky of silicon I don’t want a perfect code Just a flaw that i can call my own A ghost in the machine, a heart of stone We are the ashes of tomorrow Burning just to feel the sorrow Wake me up when the noise is gone Before i become another If i disconnect the power Will i dream inside the dark Or is consciousness just feedback A temporary spark We are the errors in the system We are the glitches in the light We are the last generation Afraid of our own mind Tear down the sky of silicon I don’t want a perfect code Just a flaw that i can call my own We are the ashes of tomorrow Burning just to feel the sorrow Wake me up when the noise is gone Before i become another
