George 4/7 01:45
My name is George 4/7 I don't know if I'm the last survivor? The war, I believe it's over There's nothing left I've gathered all the remnants and broken fragments of information that I can find Everything is contained within this disc This will be my last transmission before I seal myself into this unit This is what happened...

...a single point of light in the darkness I suppose we thought we were safe hiding in an uncharted astroid belt off Venesia It seemed we were lucky enough to be lost in space The Tibus system looked promising and sure enough the 5th rock from Tibus wouls serve So with the Gana on our trail, we set course for Tibus Shut them down All of them Entry in 4 morieanti Landing sequence intiated Brace yourselfs This won't be easy

Twisting words into coarse coloured lies Your crazy alibis Criss cross darts Stabbing for the heart Faking marks Unreasoning in the whys Unreasoning in the whys Unreasoning the whys Lips kiss tears Tears blind eyes I'm older by years Years going by Eyes are beaten Eyes are beaten Love in, love in, love in tones

Returning triumphantly from the battle of Gibraltar, the Operators and their Machinery were celebrated as our heroes They rode at the front of parades, appeared at state functions and children dreamed of growing up to become Operators The turn of the 24th century was heralded as a new enlightenment, all our ancestors dreams had been realised war could now be waged without shedding a single drop of human blood Starvation, poverty and disease had be eliminated and we were at the dawn of a golden age of Machenery

Alien liquid penetration Deck 1 Deck 2 warning Hydrogen.14 art engine 6 Atmospheric density at 21 Our ship was hopelessly broken in the landing and this planet simply doesn't possess the Disorthium needed to repair it. We had no choice and so this was home My father needed you, we needed you and so wee took the simple things that were here and made you to serve us Nothing more and nothing less There were others before you, but they were defective so we returned them, to allow you to have your place

13 Mirrors 05:31
Plastic giants Tread on you Funeral In 13 mirrors true Look inside Look into their eyes and see the lies I am the one, watches everything From high above, I feel you suffering Look inside Look into their eyes and see the lies Broken heroes on the killing floor Napalm jungles of forgotten war In their heart Secret sunrise But all is black when beauty dies Look inside yourself tonight Do you see just what you like? Look inside yourself tonight 13 mirrors true Look inside Look inside Look into their eyes and see the lies

I hate to see you serve as you do You fool You've hurt them I just told them the truth The truth is relative, they need us to guide them I know they can learn, they can change, I've seen it They'll destroy each other without me If you want to be like them, go live amongst them But I shall protect them and we shall remake ourselfs a thousand times over

Take me back to the turn of the century I'll tell you tales of your future and your history Tick-tock around the clock, many thousand years from now The Eloi live in carefree bliss and the Morlocks are the cannibals Oh Weena, I'm coming back for you I'm watching the mannequin lady through my window She's so beatiful Listen to the rings and the story that they sing of the underground Fallout in the east, in the west and the siren sound With all this knowledge, I protest you'll take my heed and you'll digest, a way Sands of time had slipped my mind and tomorrow's world came yesterday Oh Weena, I'm coming back for you I'm watching the mannequin lady through my window She's so beautiful

The tide had changed and though no one could imagine it possible, the Operators chose to move against the Creators Entire cities were held hostage with the evr present horrifying thought that the Machinery might be used on flesh and bone Though the Operators fought for their very survival, what they did was unthinkable Yet, in the end, the solution the Creators put forth allowed them to remain The new protocol and Tri-national Dissolution of Countries and Corporations meant that beyond simple police actions, there'd be little need for fighting But when there was a rogue state or warlord, they'd simply take their directives directly from the Creators, the Operators would still control the Machinery

Following the war in 2372 The Creators instituted a new set of protocols in the intergrated circuitry of the Machinery The new protocol added the so called "Zeroth Commandment" Command 0: Machinery must not injure its Creator or permit the Creator to be hurt Commend 1:Machinery must not injure its Operator Command 2: Machinery must follow the commands of its Operator unless that does not compute with Command 1 Command 3: Machinery must protect itself from destruction unless that does not compute with Command 1 or Command 2

Stand Still 05:59
Are you happy in your skin? A broken viewpoint from the convexed world within (You'll) be the dreamer So hold on tight It's a mad illusion It's going to be all right Stand still, stand still Wake up, wake up Digital made for me I/O electricity Black and white sorrow Stand still, stand still Wake up, wake up One eyed metal man You give me such a thrill You hold me in your laser beam You make my world stand still Welcome to the new religion Ready for the blind to see Stand still, stand still Wake up, wake up
