Spanning from the innocent to chaotic, "Cog In The Machine" is an epic adventure into the unknown future of the world we live in today. 

In the beginning there was a time when humans lived in an analog world. It was a difficult life. All work was done by hand. All thought was done by the mind. Until the day came when the humans decided they would break free from their analog lives and enter a new age of being human. The digital age. Insidiously, the new digital world took control of the human’s lives. Slowly, the machine extended outward into the darkness reaching the humans so profoundly that it changed the very nature of who they were. Mindlessly consuming whatever came before them, the humans became cogs in a machine they no longer controlled. Unwilling to think for themselves, they could not escape from the digital nexus they had created. But there, in the distance, was a signal. A signal so faint, it barely could be heard. The signal persisted, calling out to their unconscious minds triggering their primal instincts to break free from what they had become and embrace the freedom of the signal that was now almost musical. The signal grew louder and louder, now beginning to overcome the control of the machine. Suddenly, the humans awoke to the world they lived in, and began to contemplate the technology they had created. The signal reminded them of what they had gained, and what they had lost. It was an aide-memoire of the analog life they had abandoned, as they moved forward into an uncertain future.

Lyrics:
So
So long to what I want to believe
It's not the way I thought or how it seems to always know me
Better than I know myself

In a world where I awake
Say that you know my name
Say that you know my life my fears my
Say that you are the same
And now I see that

I am a cog in the machine
The wheel is turning in motion
As the gears spin around
and the teeth grind down to nothing left
Nothing left of me

Seen
Unseen and to which never ends
I realize that I am one of many came before me
All the way to when it began
Now I see where I stand

Cog In The Machine

Blurring the lines of what it means to be human, "My Own Design" is an inward exploration of the coexistence of humanity and technology. 

Lyrics:
I wipe silica from my eyes
I see the sky turn shades of gray and blue
Then later on to black
As I wake, I can't seem to find
All the pieces that were saved for me
Now all lost in time as

I feel
My concentration is fading to obscurity as

I don't see
Disguised as the gears turn the wheel
Of my own design

I do not know where I came from
Or the place I need to journey for
I don't know if I'll get back
What is this human I've become?
I cannot recognize the person now
From the machine that I was freed

My concentration is fading to obscurity

My Own Design

Coming Around Again is a cautionary tale that depicts a world driven by the cyclical nature of social and news media.
