the mechanisms - drop dead lyrics

cadence

my name is cadence. i chartered a ship to find my father. they told me i was too young. they told me i needed more training. i told them to drop dead. how ironic
i don’t know how i survived the crash – something strange must have happened. my blood is cold, but my heart is beating like a drum. i’m not sure what’s going on, but i came here with a question, and i’m going to find the answer if it k!lls me

i found my father. and what was driving him. a lute. some kind of instrument – not of plastic – no wires, no speakers. it was cold and hard to the touch, but seemed almost alive. i asked him what it was, where it came from. he said he’d show me

melody

they brought me back
using the power of the lute – the one living relic in this world of bioarchives and digital graves
but we quickly learned that the lute was not all it seemed – there are vast sections of my memories i can’t reach, and we found that i can’t leave the planetoid alive. but i know something about this place that they don’t. they’ll wait in orbit while i make my way to the center of the inst-tute. now i need answers

in the center of the facility i found a man – octavian – he’d been the administrator here back when it had been manned. but they’d closed the project years ago, shortly after his death
“i’d hoped not to find you here, octavian”
“you have the lute?”
“yes”
“then we’re both in its clutches”

aria

i worked with octavian in the inst-tute – we were working towards a better future, one where we could use the memories in the digital graves to return people to their families
but it turned out he had bigger plans. he sought to exploit them, using them for free, unregulated labour
we fought, and octavian died – but the threat remained. while the lute exists, we’re in danger. everyone is in danger. but i know what we need to do
