Between Me and the Machine

I remember the neon lights Through the final hallway Same old deafening sound The roaring up above my head They said we might never be back The odyssey may never end Your memory, my guiding light Will we ever meet again? Man-made gravity Holding on to me Fading bravery As the blue's turning to black It's getting clear we're not coming back Drifting as we get closer to the dark Crushed by the weight of what's left behind Riding through space at the speed of light Emerald skies no longer in sight I'm nearly passing out, hoping for a crash Something to help the torment pass The symphony of stars ahead, laughing at our rusty wreck Encapsulated Giving in to the void Forgive me Glowing dot in the black open Roaming through infinite possibilities They hide behind their maps, but we know There's no direction 'cause there's nowhere left to go Hold on, maybe we've all gone wrong How can we really think that we deserve a second chance When all that we were given has been turned into a mess? Hold on to love There's nothing left but memories I've been so wrong Infinitely lost in the nothing Gone for good This is farewell Oblivion above my head And I miss the distance Between me and the machine Smells of gasoline The air is smothering Doomed with a lifetime of suffering Encapsulated Lights turned red Sirens are breaking up my head I'd give anything to break out of this cell I'd rather burn with you than live in a cold black hell I just can't force myself to believe That this is how the story ends My fragile knees shatter the ground Drowning in tears as I forget Gone for good This is farewell Oblivion above my head And I miss the distance Between me and the machine Between me and the machine This is the fate we refused to see Trapped like rats in the nothing Giving in to the void Forgive me Forgive me Gone up in smoke There's nothing left but apathy We dug our hole As one with the symphony I remember the neon lights And when they faded away Never thought I'd miss the sound I'll carry your love 'til the edge
