By mother natures womb
Man was given cradle and tomb
Now our progress march
To the mechanised boot of her doom
With iron and fire we usurp divinity
So that one day we can be
Like unto gods
From the machine
Like unto gods
From the machine
Despite the limits of land
Air and sea all tamed by our hand
By the labours of the dead
Our total dominion unchallenged stands
With gear and wire we expand eternally
So that one day we can be
Like unto gods
From the machine
Like unto gods
From the machine
Through the void with no end
To make all frontiers obsolete
To rule all but each other
And by constructs we would be
Like unto gods
From the machine
Like unto gods
From the machine
