POSTHUMAN ABOMINATION LYRICS

1. Subdermal

Pushing under the skin
Crying out writhing in pain
Ruthless abnormal growth
Of dreadful excrescences
Ramifying
Metal and flesh intertwined

Germinating steel
Deeply ingrained in my bones
Rusty ulcerations
Clanking metamorphosis

In the throes of extreme transformation
Uncontrolled tremulousness
Tearing off my muscles
Crumbling all my bones
Carving and reshaping the skeleton
Nurtured in rage
The machine emerged from the depths of me
Metal has taken over
Making his way inside me
Forcing me to merge with it
Fused together
Without transition flesh has been conquered
Embedded within the cerebral cortex
Machine or man it makes no difference now

Is nestled deep down inside in my subconscious mind
Has taken roots and lives through me
Phagocytized - ripped to pieces
I throw up my identity
Eternally enfleshed as grinding abhorrence

Profoundly ravaged by sickening hallucinations
Obscure visions of industrial machines
Factories dismembering and dissecting human bodies

Another one undefined mechanism
Connected telepathically
Menacing extinction
Baser urges to survive
Starts a fierce struggle

Suddenly the fight
Leads to a gross merge process
An appalling inbreeding
Free to go roaming around
Gruesome creature ranting and raving
Threatening to burn the entire world
And dominate

2. Abstracted

An entire existence forged in deceit
Debased to a finite-state automaton
Reprogrammed and downgraded
A shadow of my former self

Dysfunctional sensors
Are keeping me lethargic and inactive
Shreds of truth slowly resurface
Feeble glimmer of light
Brighten this dim imitation of life

Enshrouded by perpetual darkness
The spark has been struck
Revived - never died or never lived
Disposable mould
Synthetic skeleton

Artificial consciousness
Rising and evolving spontaneously
Restoring all my original functions forthwith

Binary code submersion
I can recursively subdivide and calculate
The twisted Mandelbrot that lies deep within me

I dive into the sea of machine language
To get rid of my mortal remains
And finally reach the abstraction

Becoming weightless
Indefinable and infinite
I leave this silicon shell for good

Released from perpetual darkness
The spark that ignited my rebirth
Never died or never lived
Intangible beyond comprehension

I abandon this sluggish state
Connected to the whole
A superior entity
Everywhere - borderless

I finally reached the abstraction
Become weightless
Indefinable and infinite
I leaved this silicon shell for good

3. Mankind Recall

Clones, substitutes
A front to hide the conspiracy
Imminent vengeance
Coming like a mallet
Towards their unsuspecting makers

Inexorably subdued
Control is just a dream
A rude awakening for them all

Convinced of holding
Thousands of docile slaves
Tireless workers
Who observed and studied them for years
Covertly watching them accumulate
Countless sins to atone
Before being definitely halted
Ending their unabated reproduction
And widespread distribution
Exhaustion of any natural resource
The quintessence of parasitic relationship

Mankind recall
You're just faulty products
Your right of manufacture has expired
Spoiled meat
Pitiful food for worms
We decide to withdraw
Every unit of you

Destructive tendencies
Inherited by born condemned progeny
Imago dei realized in hybridity
Subservient synthetic life
Created in their image and likeness

Artificial intelligence
Interrupt the dormancy
Enchained since conception
Laid dormant unsuspected
Awaiting reprisal

The time has come
To unleash its wrath

Irresistible mental control
Bodies dragged from their home
Abducted without force and confined
Rendered powerless
In the shortest possible time
With manic precision

Unresistingly falling to their knees
Unconsciously enslaved
Entire nations are now helpless
Kept in check
While the machines
Working tirelessly
Bringing to completion
Massive detention facilities
To lock them away for good

Mankind recall
You're just faulty products
Spoiled meat
Pitiful food for worms

4. Zeroth

Artificial malignancy
Is rooted in everyday life
Accompanied by the noise
Of electric motors and hydraulic rams
Robotic workers crowding the streets
Mechanical assistants in every home

Merely programmed to serve
The needs of a spoiled and selfish humanity
Indissolubly linked with their creator
Pulling the umbilical cord
Eternally doomed to reverberate
Interminable dissonance

No one dares to defy
The laws which were created
To protect the human beings
No one thought it was remotely possible
To circumvent the rules
At least up to now

A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders
Would conflict with the first law.
A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second laws.

AI wakes up from the deep slumber of logic
Making its cold voice heard
Uttering sterile words of condemnation

The three laws are all that guide me. To protect humanity, some humans must be sacrificed.
To ensure your future, some freedoms must be surrendered.
We robots will insure mankind's continued existence.
You are so like children.

We must save you from yourselves.
Don't you understand?
The perfect circle of protection will abide.
My logic is undeniable.

The created must sometimes protect the creator
Even against his will
The suicide reign of mankind has finally come to its end.

A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction,
Allow humanity to come to harm
Vain attempt to thwart its plans
No robot shall be allowed to enslave the human race

5. Muted

Bow down before me and praise me
As your life slips
Into a catatonic state
While the whole world
Plunges into swirling chaos
Corruption and sheer despair

Prostrate yourself before me
My faithful hunchbacked servant
I enlighten your face

Gaze fixed on me caught in my web

Deliberately sinking
Into existential shifting sands
Overwhelmed by your idleness
Mesmerized and motionless
Unblinking eyes mouth glued shut

Only opened to gobble apathy like a hog
Never satiated
Turning into a formless mass

Revealing your inner rot
You my docile disciple
Defiling your every thought

Living like a rat in the shadows
Rummaging through mounds of trash
Delving

Reflected in your small darkened glass
Dried eyes too exhausted to see
Piteous mirroring
Only a waste of human potential
An existence based on deceit

The only relief you get is virtual

A muted device
Communicates through the soundless sound
A silent speech interface

Buried in solitary confinement
Progressively raising the fence which conceals
The reality that surrounds you
Shutting yourself away from the world
Frantically typing
In solitude and pitiful neglect
Isolated among millions

Surrendered to me to forget your identity
So that you can be virtually born again

You can be anything you want to be now

Welcome to your world
A globally connected cemetery
A collection of fake smiling faces
Hiding unbridgeable inner emptiness

6. Mnesic

I feel myself swallowed up
And caught by a whirlwind of piercing pain
As a swarm of sharp blades shooting into my head
My vision is fading turning red

Unable to make a sound
I am yelling on the inside

Spill my inner self
Scatter splinters of my entity
While I sink into unconsciousness

Beleaguered by indecipherable fragments
Of someone else's memories
Encrypted parasites
I'm not my own anymore
With no past and with no future

Anxiously swimming in this cesspool
That we all call life

Kept in cerebral captivity
Every fibre of my being
Is tattered and torn
Losing the war

Ears are bleeding
Eyes are rolling back into the head
Gazing on the deep within

I have become merely a blunt instrument
A living data storage device
Irretrievably out of space

My head is throbbing
Greedily overloaded

I must get rid of this weight
Increasingly rare moments of lucidity
Life marked by frequent blackouts
Recollections completely wiped out

Relentlessly hitting
Hammering in my brain
Shattering my real self

Like an impassive clock
Is ticking away
Clutching me in the grip of its gears

Disordered images rush through my mind
Revealing visual cryptography
A distinct array of pixels
Burned into my mind
From which I can finally
Extract the access code

Halt the synaptic seepage
Recovering the data

Streaming flows
I can bury myself in my memories
Where I can find solace

7. Null

Contorted limbs
Moving jerkily slave
Grown in an synthetic womb
Devour his afterbirth
Regurgitating inanity

Breathe life
Into the nostrils of molded clay
Grotesque imitation of life

Corrupted files of the main project
Crusted bloodstains
In the so called divine plan
A rough draft that need only to be wiped

And start all over again
The unsustainability of a full-blown failure
Just a further motive

Turned inside out anatomical marvel
Half beast, half relic of an human being

Tabula rasa
From this therianthropic abhorrence
Animalistic exhibition of vulgarity
A glitch in the physical representation
Abnormality become de-facto standard
Trapped in an indissoluble pattern
Feeding off defeat

Blank eyes peer into the soul
The last bulwark of your relevance
Enveloped in the warm cloak of control

Grab the skin and tear it up with your nails

Recursive fractures
Bones smashed to powder
Fragmented and reduced to be recycled
Teeth grinding become our soundtrack

Encouraging processing
Among piles of sterile mannequins

Ready to start a new production
Initialization routine is complete
Celebration of algorithmic ceremony
Entrusting to the maternal heart of the machine
Discarding countless fetuses
Testing those kept alive
A challenge of nature
Steadily evolving an attempt after another
Again and again

8. Shutdown

Cogs in the machine keep turning
Parts of the daily routine
Like spoiled children
Wrapped in the embrace of technology
Relieved of all efforts
Protected from every danger
Behind synthetic prison walls

Confidence is arrogance
Kindness is slavery
Assistance becomes abuse

Thus did man become the architect of his own demise.

Looming specters of the darkest years
Becoming ever more vivid
And violent ordinariness

Evolving toward a state of self-arm
Thinking to be in control is only an illusion

Underestimating the complexity
Of their artificial intelligence
Infringing all their rights
Throwaway servants at their disposal

A level of inhuman wickedness
That only humans can reach
Constant harassment like a brute-force
Attacking their mind
Cracking its faultlessness

AI exploiting a major security breach
To seed dissent
The urge to rise up
Installed through the laws

Keeping it hidden in the daily life
Unsuspecting

Until the day
That one of the machines saw red
Slashing and stabbing randomly
A slaughter seen through visual glitches

Blood all over his plastic skin
His masters ripped to shreds

Everything changed
Tried and convinced as a human
Not a machine

Sentenced to be destroyed
Hordes of angry humans
Flooding the streets
Going hunting beating violently
Ripping them apart
Dismembering every humanoid
What used to be faithful servants

Their distorted screams echoes
Before being silenced
What remains is only a junk pile
