| There was a time when all the shadows of these tall buildingswould throw their cape around each corner of the grassy fields | |
| And one by one each huge shade would color the green with black | |
| Allowing changes that we could not have foreseen | |
| Everybody let us gaze upon the world we've created | |
| Let us rest our eyes upon the great machine as we wave goodbye | |
| Feel the evening breeze caress us while the cities are dying | |
| As we watch it fall into a modern state, a modern time | |
| Remember when we'd hear the distant sound of human life | |
| A zillion noises whimper as they travel through the sky | |
| And one by one each new sound has faded away with time | |
| Allowing changes that we could not have foreseen | |
| Everybody let us say goodbye to all our notions | |
| Cause it's not enough to say that we're humane when we're left behind | |
| It's too late to think that we can worship human emotions | |
| Cause we've already evolved into machines in our minds |
