A Dying Machine Lyrics
You're no true soul, you'll never be
Man-made device, you've haunted me
You're built to serve, to calculate
You're built to love, to overtake
Stay with me for I would never ever leave you
Hold my hand for I would never ever let it see an end
Oh you are mine, oh I could never ever leave you behind
Oh stay with me for I would never ever leave you
Look at you now, you're a dying machine
Cold and disfigured, corrupted, diseased
Again you've come back, oh I'll die in this place
Mechanical cradle, synthetic embrace
You're a dying machine, you're a dying machine
The years go by, you follow me
Manufactured eyes see everything
Your corroding core degenerates
Programmed to love and terminate
Oh I must stay for I could never ever turn your love away
Oh you're the one for I could never ever see our love undone
I'm not your fool and I could never ever say a thing so cruel
So stay with me cause I am never ever gonna leave you
As deep as any ocean
Like the promise of the morning sun, never ending, never done
The scale of my devotion
I crave until we love again, follow to the bitter end
Like walking in a nightmare
A travesty, a shell born dead, fabricated, interbred
Relentless as you like it
Never ending, never gone, never changing, never done
Man-made device, you've haunted me
You're built to serve, to calculate
You're built to love, to overtake
Hold my hand for I would never ever let it see an end
Oh you are mine, oh I could never ever leave you behind
Oh stay with me for I would never ever leave you
Cold and disfigured, corrupted, diseased
Again you've come back, oh I'll die in this place
Mechanical cradle, synthetic embrace
You're a dying machine, you're a dying machine
Manufactured eyes see everything
Your corroding core degenerates
Programmed to love and terminate
Oh you're the one for I could never ever see our love undone
I'm not your fool and I could never ever say a thing so cruel
So stay with me cause I am never ever gonna leave you
Like the promise of the morning sun, never ending, never done
The scale of my devotion
I crave until we love again, follow to the bitter end
A travesty, a shell born dead, fabricated, interbred
Relentless as you like it
Never ending, never gone, never changing, never done

In an interview Mark says how it’s a conversation between a man who creates this machine or vessel to love him unconditionally. Years go by and he grows tired of it and doesn’t love her anymore but she is programmed to only love him and she ends up hunting him down and killing him out of love.
