lyrics

Out in the grey,
I see some visitors coming this way
Stomping rhythmically, crushing everything
Their cold hearts are mechanical and strange
Are they made for good or for evil? No one can say
We have no arms to bear to keep us safe
My heart, it starts to sink
They’re heading straight for me

Mecca, evading
Mecca, come sailing
Mecca, still waiting for you to come and save me

Everything that they told you is true
We’re destruction breeders, just like you
Every one of us has a chance to be saved, to stray away
And you do too
Suddenly, something happens that no one can explain
His system switches him from armed to stray
He’s made his choice and that’s the way he’ll stay for good
Can it be that my mere words allowed him to be free?
Changed his heart and mind from it’s programming
If that’s the case, well then I’m glad he came to me

Mecca, evading
Mecca, come sailing
Mecca, still waiting for you to come and save me
Mecca, aborting
Mecca, consorting
Mecca, fair warning
Kneel before me, what’s your story?

Mecca, evading
Mecca, come sailing
Mecca, still waiting for you to come and save me
Where will this lead? Only time can tell
Neutrality of mechanicals
I plant a seed that’s made of steel
Among the marigolds; parry back and watch it grow
Mecca, aborting
Mecca, consorting
Mecca, fair warning
Kneel before me, what’s your story?
