Factorium (von Braun’s Dream)

Machine to machine, open city
Metal to metal, word after word
Drop to drop, electric rain
Face to face, we’ve no faces anymore
Night after night, worked hard for this
Illusions of a perfect world
Metropolis gleam, anti-human machine
Living like a blind worm

Future shines thru von Braun’s dream
It’s worse than we ever thought it could be
Sterile places, signals clean
One more time, it’s von Braun’s dream
Can’t come true, can’t be real
Rebel
Please, feel

Factorium works so perfectly
Sunlight so timidly gleams
Soon it’s all over for the sun and us
Soon it’s all true, von Braun’s dream
Imagine his perfect gleam

Engine after engine, vault after vault
Factory after factory explodes in space
And it’s worse than we ever imagined
Steel crashes steel, plate on plate
You know it, von Braun’s dream
Can’t come true
Rebel
It’s too late

Factorium works so perfectly
Sunlight so timidly gleams
Soon it’s all over for the sun and us
Soon it’s all true, von Braun’s dream
Imagine his perfect gleam
