Born natural machines
For changing information
Changing me
Ride the River out of Eden
The flow of change comes slow
But constantly
Day by day I compete
New brothers in the pool, but wait
Most of them won't stay
Guiding chaos into order
Genetic symphony goes on
A brand new score to play
Take a strand of DNA
Slight mutation every day
Survive so I can make my way
And be passed down - down
You - Them - Him - Her
I drive you
Need to survive you
I'll work you like a clock
I write your story
Does our hero live or die
Remains yet to be seen
I need you to survive
You're my machine [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/f/frameshift/the_gene_machine.html ]
Survival of the species
Third in line behind the gene
Behind me
Compared with the machine
The bloodline doesn't prove as thick
Or change a thing
I'm afraid of crossing over
I try to stay alive in you
Your life paves my way
If I really won this fight
If I am intact I will
Construct without delay
A brand new score to play
Take a strand of DNA
Slight mutation every day
Survive so I can make my way
And be passed down - down
You - Them - Him - Her
I drive you
Need to survive you
I'll work you like a clock
I write your story
Does our hero live or die
Remains yet to be seen
I need you to survive
You're my machine
Mother - Father - Sister - Brother
They fight me
They try to hide me
Inside where I belong
I have played my part
You - Me - We - Are
You are me
Think through it clearly
You work me like a clock
You write my story
Does our hero live or die
Remains yet to be seen
I need you to survive
You're my machine
