System Shock Lyrics


A derelict on the edge of space

Frozen for untold time

Visceral visions and a bloody taste

Reveal suspicion true

Analysis complete, prophetic lights

A maze beyond the gates

Spectral shadows now begin to loom

The last thing you see is certain doom

Morbid paradox

Beyond the realm of thought

The door forever locked

System shock

A massacre gelid remains,

Present within central core

Desolate site devoid of life

Wires spike through voided skulls

An aural voice inhuman and empty,

A machine fueled by evil power

Universal enigma sentient life,

Master of this cold domain

Your mind controlled

Assimilation

Your body cold

Termination

Tendrils wrapped around your brain

System shock is endless pain

Assimilation complete, visions engage

Body condemned, mortal decay

Cybernetic spector, malicious intent

Scours realm in search of life

Consciousness connected life betrayed

Reality slips away forever

Twisted cables block your escape

Your scream echoes in the void
