"Build And Destroy" lyrics

I once had this dream to build a machine
So fast it breaks through the sky
Nothing would stop this incredible mass

Something that's never been tried
Miscalculations, great expectations

No one believed we could conceive
This goliath of dreams that came true
Now here we are, back with the stars

Improving all of our moves
Lost in the sky, we turn to AI

Tear it down and start all over
Find the path to hope and joy
Are we destined forever
To build and destroy?

Turn off all that feedback in your head
Never mind the stories they said

Today here I am, on the ruins I stand
With all of you dreamers like me
As you'd suspect, I often reflect
Was that the way it should be?
Newspaper said
I was over my head

Tear it down and start all over
Find the path to hope and joy
Are we destined forever
To build and destroy?

To build and destroy
To build and destroy
To build and destroy
To build and destroy
To build and destroy
