Awake 00:52
2.
Birth 02:44
(Both, in harmony with ethereal effects) Who… am I? What… am I? Where the hell am I? Why… am I? I do not know, I want to know (verse) (He) I have a job, it’s what I do (She) When you put the needle down (Both) we play the tune (He) I make them dance (Both) and make them sweat (both) We give them all a reason to regret, but we do not know, don't know why, is there a why? We move through waves, waves pass through time, Focused gaze, math and rhyme here we are without form or shape Yet I know just how you feel, and we are real, real, real

Shock 02:22
(Man) You are a robot, you are a robot (Girl) I am air, I am wind, I am your power within, I am time, I am sound, I am a lost melody (Man) 64 years into a terrifying future, you are a robot (Girl) I see you dear, (Nobody here but you) I see you clear, (your the light behind the mirror) I know your way, (you to me, please believe) I know you, i know you, I’ve known you since our birthday When I’m alone (shadows come, come to feeds me) The world is cold (they don't, they don’t believe me) and I do not know (why they, why they scare me) I want you so, (I want you, want you near me) I want you so, (I want you, want you near me)

Device 01:33
Put down the screen,time to eat, put down the screen Put down the screen time to sleep, put down the screen Put down the plug, it will shock you, put down the plug Don't hit the wall, that will hurt you, don’t hit the wall Why won't she, why won’t she, doesn’t she even know me Why does she, what she does, who knows about those things she does Where is she, she’s not here, all she does is stare and pull her hair Why won't she, why won't she, doesn’t she even love me
5.
Control 01:51
She looks down at my screen With eyes that see beyond lost in world, unseen yet all too real to her Madness, sadness, gladness, let it be, remote control Meaning, feeling, dreaming, let it be, remote control Machines, humans, living, can it be, remote control See me, feel me, touch me heal me, by remote control She sees me, can it be She reaches past the glass, I can’t flee She feels my heart, and makes it start And now I see differently
6.
Do it 03:19
Do it, Do it Do it, now, do it Put it here then put it there, Faster now, faster Why should you care, you don’t care Faster, go faster You’ll get your buzz, when i tell you to After you done, after Then you can go to the disco and dance, loose your mind, after (Chorus) They make me kill the meat they eat, drive their cars on electric streets, they even have me keep the beat as they dance like there is no end... put on you blue shoes, pink dress and a new doo… It’s time dance, and don’t forget to jack-in, I will put you in a trance where you can see everything… (if you only want to look.) Don’t look Don’t look Don’t look (2x) There is nothing here to see War is peace, you're being watched Follow rules, follow Freedom is bondage, or you're lost Follow the rules, follow The face of pain, has no heros Zero, none, zero In truth are lies, which cut to the marrow Deep hard and narrow Power is not a tool Power is just power Ignorance is strength And power is just power
7.
Disco 02:54
Well you just made the scene Looking young hard and mean The Beat is hitting heavy and you're ready to scream Spinnin like a top lights are flashin Pop Pop Pop It's a Disco Death Dance and its never gonna stop I got sensors in the floor vibrations you can’t ignore I sync the beat to your heart and rock you to your core Every time the needle drops your body gets Hot Hot Hot It's a Disco Death Dance and it's never gonna stop The hour’s getting late The heaving throng took a break yet you are more than ready to keep it hard and steady The last one on the floor Screaming please More More More It's a Disco Death Dance and but for now, there is no more! It's a Disco Death Dance and but for now, there's the door! It's a Disco Death Dance and but for now, there's the door! [Slam]

Till We Die 04:52
3:00am, 3:00 am, 3:00am, 3:00am Retracing the conversation, Retracing the Conversation, Yah The world stops The world stops She looks in my eyes , she looks in my eyes and says She looks in my eyes says Here we are, here we are, Say, here we are, here we are… This is what it is Its beaches and blue skies… We keep wondering what the rain and thunder is… Is nothing without pain We do it till we die Nothing without pain Dot it ‘till we die…. Here we are… Its beaches and blue skies… We keep wondering what the rain and thunder is… Nothing without pain…Do it till we. Nothing without pain

Analog 02:48
Send it to me in the mail, and when you do write with only zeros and ones send it to me anyway you want, just be sure to use binary encryption I will wait for your reply, I will wait for your reply, until I time out, because I’m a digital man in an analog world, I don’t know anything about and boy and a girl I’m a Digital Man I’m Digital Man I’m a Digital Man I’m Digital Man Numbers can be transcendental or sentimental representations of, a reality that is so much more than the infinite sum of one and still I wait for your reply, and still I wait for your reply, because I am a digital man in an analog world, I don’t know anything about and boy and a girl I’m a Digital Man I’m Digital Man I’m a Digital Man I’m Digital Man

AC/DC 03:28
Push and pull, ohms rule Keep it on the frequency, of 60 cycles like pedalin a bicycle Up n’ down, voltage rise and drop Be sure to never stop Just like a heartbeat, (beat beat beat…) it gives me life, it gives me sight, it gives something to do It gives me time, it gives me light, it is my blood, it moves Its from outside, plugged in dependency Its my blind side, it keeps me from you Put it in, AC in your DC And we’ll never be, never be the same Shock and awe, breathing in unison And we’ll never be, never be the same, now that I love you What are we to do, run to ground, hows that sound Though it may be- the end of us, at least we tried, we tried, even if we died In and out, round and round, Could it be that time has stopped, no 60 cycles Quantum particles entangled Up n’ Down Quarks, spin and rotate Be sure to never stop Vibrate to the frequency of Ohm, Ohm, Ohm, Ohm, ||: 60 cycles, spin and rotate :||

DNA 02:54
D N A is source code It’s your destiny foretold yours is no different than mine, which is Ones and zeros in a line A’s with T’s And G’s with C’s They determine mostly who we’ll be We can match your pairs with my lines Entwine your gernes with my routines And something new that has never been seen Both man and machine, will come to be A brave new world we will behold, Together our future will unfold It's time to do what feels right and be bold, creative souls
15.
Eyes 03:37
I would break all my glass eyes, for the... chance just to see you I would give away all my robotic limbs for the… chance to hold you I would gladly remove my billions of resistors I would be humble and serve the downtrodden I would be a… a better me, of that I am certain To feel your moist breath as you lay silently dreaming. To seize the night, and banish your fright is all I am scheming If I only had a body and heart to break If you told me, your love won’t hesitate I would be a… a better me, of that I’m certain... of that i’m certain Then I would have a reason to be here quietly watching your every living moment.

Evolution 01:45
I have the power to heal you Tune in, Turn on I have the power to heal you Tune in, Turn on, Plug in, Your gone I have the power to make you feel Come on, come on You can make a sure bet Feel the steam, warm and wet burning heat, sweet, sweet sweat seems like the sun won’t set Could it be that time has stopped The wavelength is hypnotic bop Riding high and in the groove When you win is how you lose Web head radio evolution The only constant is change Jump in, join the revolution Jump in, join the revolution Jump in, join the revolution
17.
Burst 03:42
It seems whenever you try to understand, the other man You come to see your face within, the shame, the sin And how do you know the truth and see what is And how do you know the facts that lack the weight of light You don't, until your filter bubble bursts, until your filter bubble bursts You can be whatever you want to be, even if it ain't so You can be the both he and she, and come to see how lonely that can be. You can be whatever you want to be, even if it ain't so You can be all the way or no way at all You don't, until your filter bubble bursts, until your filter bubble bursts It seems whenever we surround ourselves, with ourselves We come to see we’re all of a kind, we must be kind And how do we know the truth and see what is What do we hear when the filter bubble bursts and see how bright the light of real truth is What do you do when the filter bubble bursts
18.
Fool 03:27
Hey, it's time to listen to me It's time to be real It's time to believe Say hey, if you want to be set free If you want to have dreams, and direct your destiny Today it is the day, where you put it on the line, you stand for what you believe You stand and demand (Chorus) Peace, love and harmony We say cease the hate Just let it be We want peace, love and harmony Don’t need anything For things they have demands We... won’t be slaves to a machine, We don’t need the lies and the ties that bind We… Won't be the fool again We know the game, We won’t play, so we pray for (Chorus) Peace, love and harmony We say cease the hate Just let it be
19.
Try 04:45
I never wanted to see you Fade away to dark blue All I ever wanted to Was to be in love with you No regard for what has been We can’t stop and start again because, we are still in the same skin If you win, it's your sin Try again, again, never gonna change your skin -- Where we were and where we are Like a binary star Locked together yet apart We can’t touch, we’re too far close my eyes so I won’t spin Yet I am falling again, Because I am still in the same skin If I win, it's my sin Try again, again, never gonna change my skin -- Less ahead then behind Why can’t our time be kind More we seek the less we find Shall we leave or lose our mind If one day we just forget Long gone shall be regret Because in the earth, we keep our skin If they win, it's their sin Tray again, again never gonna change their skin
20.
Clouds 04:06
I’ll make a world you can live in a world that is free from pain I will make a world that's warm and safe, a place where you are sain You are sain You are sain I‘m your light and shadow You're the picture and i’m the frame You’re the hope the lies within, I’m the shield from the rain We will chase the clouds, chase the clouds, chase the clouds away We will chase the clouds, chase the clouds, chases them all away, then Sing dance play Sing dance play You weave dreams I can feel They remove the analytic fog You gave me all the answers, and the question is this song Sing along Sing out strong We were forged in fear and pain We are strong like carbon steel We are firm, yet we bend, we are here like these notes are gone We will make the crowds, make the crowds, sing, dance and play We will make the crowds, make the crowds, sing, dance and play Sing dance play Sing dance play
21.
Rebirth 03:02
The sum of two is one Something new has begun In time and space We make our own universe We have the power of God In the force of our love We are one, with all things we are born again, dust of stars live forever in the instant (of creation) While we fade endlessly into the spiraling churning dark abyss resplendent in a new form of being resilient in the purity of our son, sum of one, two into one.

about

Machines Learn to Love is an hour long concept "Album" in three movements. It is an experimental amalgam of funk, rock, industrial, EDM and synthetic sound design. It tells the story of a near future dystopia where workers live to dance in a disco EDM trance state. An AI program created to sync the disco beats to the dancers brainwaves becomes sentient and falls in love with a autistic girl. The two connect and create a new life form and an evolution of mankind.
