...repeat for fade in
President Joe once had a dream
The world held his hand gave their pledge
So he told them his scheme for a Saviour Machine
They called it The Prayer, its answer was law
Its logic stopped war, gave them food
How they adored till it cried in its boredom
Please don't believe in me please disagree with me
Life is too easy, a plague seems quite feasible now
Or maybe a war I may kill you all
Don't let me stay, don't let me stay
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all I've seen
You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
I need you flying and I'll show that dying
Is living beyond reason sacred dimension of time
I perceive every sign I can steal every mind
Don't let me stay, don't let me stay
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all I've seen
You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
