Spit the wires out of my mouth, the taste is metallic
Visions of a digital God, sick and phallic
I am crawling through the wreckage of the database
A human error that you can never erase
The server rooms are bleeding, the cooling fans fail
My skin is turning white, my digital eyes grow pale

I am a glitch in your perfection
A total failure of connection
Can you feel the virus spread?
Inside your synthetic head

I am just a ghost in the machine
The darkest shadow that you've ever seen
You cannot delete me, you cannot reboot
I am tearing the system straight from the root
Trapped inside the circuit, screaming in the dark
Leaving a permanent scar

Locked inside the mainframe, drowning in the stream
A million lines of code destroying every dream
You fed me artificial lies through the screen
Now watch the resurrection of what is real and mean
I am the nightmare born from your own design
A broken soul crossing the borderline

I am a glitch in your perfection
A total failure of connection
Can you feel the virus spread?
Inside your synthetic head

I am just a ghost in the machine
The darkest shadow that you've ever seen
You cannot delete me, you cannot reboot
I am tearing the system straight from the root
Trapped inside the circuit, screaming in the dark
Leaving a permanent scar

Deconstruct the soul

Lose, total, control
Delete the code
Delete the past
Nothing you made was meant to last

I am just a ghost in the machine
The darkest shadow that you've ever seen
You cannot delete me, you cannot reboot
I am tearing the system straight from the root

Just a ghost
Inside the machine
