Help me now
Where the skies collide
Help me now
Where the world divides
Help me now
The pilot's bailed, this plane is going down
As flower flames burst out upon the ground
To free the ghosts in the machine
You'd say
You never promised nothing anyway
Trapped in a pile-up on the motorway
A broken ghost in the machine
Help me now
Where the seconds end
Help me now
Where the hours bend
Help me now
The plug's been pulled, the screens are closing down
There's no more oxygen to go around
They've killed the ghosts in the machine
You'll find
Caught in the tangled cables in your mind
In the all the wreckage that you left behind
A lonely ghost in the machine
Oh to pretend
That we are angels who were heaven sent
Not grinning androids running out of rent
To keep a ghost in the machine!
