[Verse 1]
   C5
Dismantling the clockwork that makes me the cynic
Pallet wheel and click
The properties of my indifference
Reverseengineering what makes it tick
Dissecting the finetuned mechanism
Rack and barrel, spring and pin
Its synchronous characteristics
To kill what makes it spin

[Bridge]
E5
  Disassemble this machinery
Reprogram these eyes, undo this design

[Verse 2]
G5
Labelled and filed, each part indexed
Broken to pieces then thoroughly burned
Deconstruction of what I am
Buried to make sure he never returns
Taken apart, defused
Blueprints turned to ashes
Eradicate the last remains
                  Bbm
Remnants of the insane

[Chorus]
Disintegration
       Gb
The destruction of me
Now imperative
   Bbm
To purge myself
Of this condition
   Gb
Complete this dissolution
           G5
A necessity

[Intelude]
Bb5
Break
Break
Break
This deceitful machine

[Verse 3]
Gb
  A lie, what once I was
Obsolete instrument
An outmoded contraption
                 Gb
A malfunctioning device

[Verse 4]
Gb
That callous self now extinguished
That malignant self now disused
That conceited invention
                      Gb
To nothing now reduced

[Chorus]
Bbm
   Complete disintegration
Gb
The destruction of me
Now imperative
Bbm
   To purge myself
Of this condition
Gb
  Complete this dissolution
A necessity

[Outro]
Bb5
   Break
