5. The Endless City (7:03)
Lost in a place
Defined by numbers
Surrounded by pillars that reach for the sky
An endless city that runs away from time
I breach the stratosphere
On telomeres of circuitry
And under these colorless skies
Where nothing survives
I'll deliver you
If we make it out of here alive
...and the days are longer
...and the nights are colder
...and the way is undetermined
But I know it's far...
From the world that I remember
And I feel the essence of me
Becoming obsolete
In this digital anatomy
Losing what it means to feel
This coding
Inside me
I'm someone else
This undeciphered binary
On this staircase to nowhere
I traverse your machines
To find The Net Terminal Gene
Beyond the hollow of Jupiter
I've walked a thousand years
To bring you this pivotal key
A never-ending doorway
To nothing as it seems
No sign of your safeguards
In this labyrinth of derelict dreams
These fragments of data
That belong to more than you
It's the sequence that will save us all
From a future we didn't choose
...and the systems falter
...and the rust dissolves
...and the end is further than death
But I stay here...
On this staircase to nowhere
I traverse your machines
To find The Net Terminal Gene
Beyond the hollow of Jupiter
I've walked a thousand years
To bring you this pivotal key
...and the days are longer
...and the nights are colder
...and the way is undetermined
But I stay the course for the both of us
Defined by numbers
Surrounded by pillars that reach for the sky
An endless city that runs away from time
I breach the stratosphere
On telomeres of circuitry
And under these colorless skies
Where nothing survives
I'll deliver you
If we make it out of here alive
...and the days are longer
...and the nights are colder
...and the way is undetermined
But I know it's far...
From the world that I remember
And I feel the essence of me
Becoming obsolete
In this digital anatomy
Losing what it means to feel
This coding
Inside me
I'm someone else
This undeciphered binary
On this staircase to nowhere
I traverse your machines
To find The Net Terminal Gene
Beyond the hollow of Jupiter
I've walked a thousand years
To bring you this pivotal key
A never-ending doorway
To nothing as it seems
No sign of your safeguards
In this labyrinth of derelict dreams
These fragments of data
That belong to more than you
It's the sequence that will save us all
From a future we didn't choose
...and the systems falter
...and the rust dissolves
...and the end is further than death
But I stay here...
On this staircase to nowhere
I traverse your machines
To find The Net Terminal Gene
Beyond the hollow of Jupiter
I've walked a thousand years
To bring you this pivotal key
...and the days are longer
...and the nights are colder
...and the way is undetermined
But I stay the course for the both of us
