Lyrics Survival Machines - Brighter Than A Thousand Suns

Survival Machines

Nature red
In tooth and claw
Forgive us our fatal flaws
Count your sins
And clench your fists
But your veins have built a prison
Bound by skin
And broken limbs
We break the shell we’re hiding in
We are more than our bodies
We are more than we’ve become
We are more than our bodies
We are immaterial
These scars won’t sever our ties
Because this flesh is just a disguise
Though breathless lungs and blinded eyes
May leave us slaves to the design
And when all we’re worth
Is swallowed by a hungry earth
Our fears will drown in the ocean’s thirst
And the stars will cradle our rebirth
We are more than our bodies
We are more than we’ve become
We are more than our bodies
We are immaterial
And when nothing’s left
We will break the bonds of flesh
Soon the weave these sinews spun
Will melt into the sun
This won’t last forever
This won’t last forever
When all is said and done
Who will speak for everyone?
This won’t last forever
This won’t last forever
We are more than our bodies
We are more than we’ve become
We are more than our bodies
We are immaterial
This won’t last forever
