I stand here. Looking down upon lost souls, broken dreams.
An apathetic society.
Succumbed to the rule of artificial intelligence.
Our human race driven into submission.
Decades of battle. The will to fight diminished.
But some of us will always fight.
We are the ones with that killer instinct.
Fires blaze across the midnight sky.
A cool wind swirls above this concrete jungle.
As my rage within intensifies with every passing second.
For the time has come to unleash my killer instinct.
I descend upon this modern metropolis.
Conflict awaits me, but the battle must go on.
Time is of the essence.
We must reverse this technological genocide, but it can't be done alone. We must all ignite our killer instinct.

You, you've been yearning for
The truth and more as we pursue the light
I've been dreaming of a sacred love
To find what's wrong or right
While the raindrops fall on concrete walls
Our passions will ignite
Won’t you take my hand and traverse this land
Deep into the night
Droids and dreams, saturn rings, hallowed screams
Invade your mind while the skyline sings
To cityscapes of past demise, magenta skies
The human race deprived, may not survive
Dystopian times, paths defined, thoughts maligned
Our own existence confined and redesigned
Futures sold, lies exposed, stories of old
Obscure prisoners in the afterglow
Droids and dreams, saturn rings
Invade my mind
Droids and dreams, hallowed screams
Magenta skies
Droids and dreams, saturn rings
Invade my mind
Droids and dreams, hallowed screams
Magenta skies
Follow me through the street debris
An excursion to unfold
Temptations bring unwanted things
In a city of captured souls
The eyes above keep looking down
To trace our sound echoes
In an age when androids rule the land
Having seized total control

Across the Grid

Beyond the computer age.
This new landscape which connects all of us.
Electronic stimuli transmit across wireless networks.
Our desires, our emotions, our needs.
Strewn about the globe in milliseconds.
Integrating not only humans.
But apparatus, devices, machines.
Intertwined like an elaborate mosaic.
We are all connected across the grid.

Robots on the dance floor
Moving to the sound
Manipulated flesh
Blending with the crowd
Integrated circuitry
Most humans unaware
Deception brought upon them
By their telepathic stare
Robots on the dance floor
Hipping to the groove
Maneuvering machinery
So human how they move
Electronic synergy
And stimulated touch
Beware the carnal droids
There's no escaping from their clutch

Into the night we go
Escape from all we know
Across this cryptic land
No longer ruled by man
And if the sun shall rise
We will protect our eyes
From the prophetic past
We will be free at last
Come with me beyond the neon glow
City lights in the electric fold
Journeys forward to better days
Paths behind us are set a blaze
Under a moonlit sky
Our destination nigh
Beyond the rocky shards
We sneak beyond the guards
A gate to other worlds
Emotions feeling furled
No longer lives subdued
Tonight we make anew
For now the chains are gone
We'll fight to carry on
A strength emboldened deep
Within the dreams we sleep
Revealed are secret lies
Presuming our demise
A future to unfold
Released to thee unknown

The year was 1985
Janie was in her home
Preparing for the night
Fingernails painted gold
Living for the future
Living the teenage dream
But little did Janie know
It was the last night she'd be seen
Front seat of his Mustang
Boyfriend at the wheel
Prom dress nicely folded
Atop her pink prom dress heels
Headed to the dance
With her hair all glittery
Where did Janie go
It was a prom night mystery
Dancing with her friends
To the latest rock n roll
Boyfriend right behind her
Mystery unfold
Ceature in the darkness
Waiting in the wings
Soon she had to leave them
To fix her hair and things
Down the highschool hallway
Travelling all alone
Creature right behind her
Ready to take her soul
A legend forged in folklore
Of highchool history
Where did Janie go
It was a prom night mystery
