Collapse the War Engine Lyrics by Architect

All Is Not Lost

2007

The gears of the war machine spin
Always forward
Endlessly driving, forever onward

Never slowing down
History repeats over and over
Explode, implode, faulting, failing

From tooth and nail to nuclear arms
The results are always the same
Explode, implode, faulting, failing

The reminders are the trademarks
The accounts of being dragged through unescorted hell
Told by the innocent that passed us by
That did not embrace the great machine
The destroyer of human understanding
That feeds on our ignorance, yeah

But we will no longer pump fuel to the flame
But at what price? But at what price?
And I beg this question in this life for the first time

What purpose does drive this engine?
What purpose does drive this engine?
What purpose does drive this engine?
What purpose does drive this engine?
What purpose does drive this engine?

What purpose does drive this engine?
When will this machine collapse?
What purpose does drive this engine?
When will this machine collapse?
Never
Never
