[The Protomen - Intermission lyrics]
My dearest Emily
Tonight will mark the end of a
Life long dream of mine
The completion of a labor I began as a child
Even before I knew the words for it before I
Knew the ways to accomplish such a task
And even now my heart is
Heavy with dread i fear
I've built a great and powerful
Evil or rather, together
Albert and I have built it
I know that I am to blame i allowed
Albert to persuade me to change the
Designs i allowed this perversion
Of my course
This new machine that we've built
Is unlike any I ever imagined it looks
Like a man a lifeless steel man
Albert convinced me that even with the new
Geological Unmanned Terraforming System
We designed
The task of extracting the ore is
Still too dangerous for a human
He plans to completely replace human
Workers in the mining sector
The idea of displacing so many men
The annihilation of countless jobs in
The name of safety seems an unbalanced
Trade off what is worse
The latest prototypes have been revised
To carry small firearms
Emily, I fear that I have put you and
This entire city in danger i will speak
To him tonight on the matter perhaps I can
Persuade him to scrap the whole project
In the meantime, please
Be careful this world is getting darker all
The time i weep at the
Thought of something terrible
Happening to you i could not bear it
All my love, Tom" in a workshop in a
Building overlooking the city
Two great men argued over whether or
Not to turn the wheels
Tonight will mark the end of a
Life long dream of mine
The completion of a labor I began as a child
Even before I knew the words for it before I
Knew the ways to accomplish such a task
And even now my heart is
Heavy with dread i fear
I've built a great and powerful
Evil or rather, together
Albert and I have built it
I know that I am to blame i allowed
Albert to persuade me to change the
