General Ludd Lyrics by Buried Beds

In Spirit (2013)

2013

When it’s time to go
You’ll return to your makers, and they’ll turn to face you
Your mind machine starts to glow
You are lost on the others, with your letters and numbers
Hands above and hands below, they want to know, want to know
Barrows and Barons, the province of man
Quiver of arrows, they build up the land
Super computer and General Ludd
Solving for pattern, they scatter the flood
Oh which machines will break, and which ones we’ll use to break them
Oh which we’ll break, and which will break him
Ashes to ashes, a loneliеr man
Calendar carvings, the patterns unplannеd
Soldering circuits and timing the tide
Making the makers, but who will decide
Which machines will break, and which ones we’ll use to break them
Oh which will break, and which will break him
(A man must surely see, the greater mystery
Mechanical in head and heart the king of industry
But he who raises up, a king without a crown
Philias and phobias will bring the hammer down)
