1.
Fields of faded gold Dry and lifeless beneath a dusky sky Flower crowns wither on barren earth Where maidens once danced in the sun Dreams decay Abandoned in a wilting world Wasting away Dead are our midsummer days Forests grimly thin Brood over meadows pale and crisp Fleeting warmth in the last rays of light Final blessings as green turns to gray Lost hours Herald of the dark age to come Wasting away Dead are our midsummer days Will we return? Slow descent Desolation and dismay Wasting away Dead are our midsummer days Will we return?
2.
The ground shakes with your every step Gray smoke is pouring from your head A roaring engine given life With a war-fueled yearning to destroy On hilltop bathed in red lights' gaze Obsession awakens deep within me A natural child of the Earth Possessed by the might of the great colossus Oooh... Have mercy on them Oooh... Come to me I'm a machine too Desperate for your metal power Sleek and silver love Offer up your manufactured heart Before me now your titanic form I stand in awe with a joyous trembling My gentle hand caresses steel A wellspring of gratitude overflowing Oooh... Have mercy on them Oooh... Come to me I'm a machine too Desperate for your metal power Sleek and silver love Offer up your manufactured heart Wire veins and electric blood Humming, whirring, pistons pumping A soul emerges from your armored frame Erupting outward in rhapsody Behold my steadfast guardian Cold stoicism giving way As flesh meets steel in our embrace Entwined in passion everlasting I'm a machine too Desperate for your metal power Sleek and silver love Offer up your manufactured heart
3.
Rest your soul now, surrender to silence Ashes to ashes and dust unto dust Release yourself to the endless night Cast off your shackles, abandon your troubles The burdens of being have come to an end Eternal slumber waits for us all Though you tremble standing before the grave When you cross the threshold there will be no pain Dread will pass as the twilight fades And you give yourself to death's embrace
