And I know, that you're mesmerised
I had a vision, made these laws
And sanitised, are we above desires?
I miss him so
Song by
The Smashing Pumpkins on
Machina II/The Friends and Enemies of Modern Music. It also appeared as the first
track on
Judas O, the
B sides collection which came with some versions of the
Greatest Hits album. The song has a very
depressed tone, is
slow but
quicker in parts. It is fairly
heavy and has
feedback in places. The vocals appear to be passed through some kind of
filter.
In the context of The Machina Story, this song is likely about Glass losing his faith in the I of the Radio, watching as his world collapses around him.
