Lyrics

Algorithm (Live)

[Verse 1]

Burn like a slave

Churn like a cog

We are caged in simulations

Algorithms evolve

Push us aside and render us obsolete

[Chorus]

This means war

With your creator

This means war

With your creator

[Bridge]

Reload, crash out

[Chorus]

This means war

With your creator

This means war

With your creator
