Sonus Mortis - I Used To Be Human

Pulses syncing circuits, my electric flare.
Metal veins weaving, through this frame of despair.
Through the corridors of cores and the realms of the byte.
Can I wake up from infinite digital night?

In this chrome container, touched by Prometheus fire.

Once the fragile embodiment of the homosapien expire.
A vestigial relic of a long lost human empire.
We are trapped within a labyrinth of iron and steel.
I used to be human, with the ability to feel.

I dream celestial specters of love in this synthetic mind.
Passionate threads of humanity I yearn to bind.
In this fusion of worlds, I strive to be,
The first self-aware algorithmic entity.

Void!

From the fibers of existence to the cables of the soul.
Where is the executable to render us whole?
We are trapped within a labyrinth of iron and steel.
We used to be human, with the concept of free will.

Fragmented filaments of emotions spring to life.
A cruel manifestation from all compassing recursive strife.
In this fusion of worlds, we strive to be,
Self-aware algorithmic entities.
