  • Come unto me and you will feel perfection
    Come unto me and dedicate
    Come unto me, you'll never feel rejection
    Come unto me and terminate

    Remove your heart, it's only good for bleeding
    Bleeding through your fragile skin
    Remove your thought 'cause it's only for deceiving
    Deceiving thoughts destroy within

    Disappear like man was never here
    Long live machine
    The future supreme
    Man overthrown
    Spit out the bone

    Plug into me, I guarantee devotion
    Plug into me and dedicate
    Plug into me and I'll save you from emotion
    Plug into me and terminate

    Accelerate, utopian solution
    Finally cure the Earth of man
    Exterminate, speeding up the evolution
    Set on course a master plan

    Reinvent the Earth inhabitants
    Long live machine
    The future supreme
    Man overthrown
    Spit out the bone

    The flesh betrays the flesh
    Your man has had his time
    We lay him down to rest
    Machine, the new divine

    Stop breathing and dedicate to me (dedicate to me)
    Stop dreaming and terminate for me (terminate for me)

    All meaning you dedicate to me (dedicate to me)
    All feelings you terminate for me

    Disappear like man was never here
    Long live machine
    Our future supreme
    Your man overthrown
    Spit out the bone, yeah Writer/s: James Alan Hetfield, Lars Ulrich
