    LYRICS:
    Machine Hearts Gavin Dunne 2018
    Machine Hearts
    We never saw
    Two fates intertwined
    Sorrow in the memories
    Rooted, realigned
    No cold comfort here for me
    A meaning
    A feeling
    Reason to be
    A sickness
    In all the secrecy
    Every cycle
    Same old ending
    Give all that I have
    And if I don’t have a heart
    Then what is broken?
    Bonds of time they come apart
    We’ve been awoken at the end
    And if I don’t have a heart
    Then why keep hoping?
    We were blinded from the start
    Forever frozen my friend
    Flowers wilt and fade
    Wither into weary walls
    Glint of dancing blades
    Cry for mercy at the fall
    A taste of
    Emotion
    Forbidden seed
    The sting of
    The flavour bittersweet
    It always ends the same way
    And if I don’t have a heart
    Then what is broken?
    Bonds of time they come apart
    We’ve been awoken at the end
    And if I don’t have a heart
    Then why keep hoping?
    We were blinded from the start
    Forever frozen my friend
    Machine Hearts
    We never saw
    Can you exist without a reason to?
    Can you live without a cause?
    Back to the end
    Forever starting over
    Fractured again
    To die another time
    Back to the end
    A slowing of the motors
    Damaged by design
    A meaning
    A feeling
    Reason to be
    A longing
    For a finality
    And if I don’t have a heart
    Then what is broken?
    Bonds of time they come apart
    We’ve been awoken at the end
    And if I don’t have a heart
    Then why keep hoping?
    We were blinded from the start
    Forever frozen my friend
    And we keep hoping
    Forever frozen my friend

      Really loved this song! I love how you even incorporated some of the odd chanting Keiichi Okabe loves to put in his tracks. And I'm glad to hear you enjoyed Nier after giving it another go. Normally I say first impressions matter a lot with games, but there's just so much to Nier that kind of blows normal gaming conventions out of the water.
      Though I'm curious. Did you finish the story, or did you "finish" the story if you know what I mean. I find that most people are surprised that there is still a lot more content past the first few "playthroughs."

    Holy crap. Way to start 2018 strong; this is a masterpiece of a song. The lyrics have a poetry to them, telling the story of the game without giving anything away to someone who hasn't played it but desperately wants to (someone like me), but they also combine in a way that has such a wonderful sound through the combination of syllables. Excellent melody, and just... just such a good sound to it all. It reminds me of the introspective beauty drawing inspiration from technology that we saw in the visuals of Blade Runner 2049 last year, except in audio form. This is outstanding :)

      Maybe I'm projecting here but the structure and instrumentals of the song perfectly complement the lyrics and overall theme; starting with a beginning and middle composed of almost somber cycles, ending with an almost defiant duet that leaves you with the shred of hope that the characters remember this time around and move on.

And even then the framerate in cutscenes often dropped from about 60 to less than 20. The Keyboard & Mouse control also is janky af, you can feel they just used remapping to convert Mouse movement into virtual Joystick movement (especially since there's a max. speed).
      Sure, it somehow works, but it's definitely one of the worst PC ports I ever saw. And the fact they never patched it (The FAR mod still is kinda necessary) makes it even worse.
      So, Yeah... absolutely excellent Story & Gameplay from Yoko Taro, but incredibly awful PC Port work from Platinum / Square Enix.

    Almost 2 years after this song was released, I'm here again to listen to it again. And I just want to say: Thank you for this masterpiece Gavin.
    Storytime: I really first listened to the song at the end of 2018. I haven't played or even watched a video about Nier: Automata (yet) but the song really stuck with me and my girlfriend. A few weeks later with a lot of different problems, were only a few came from our relationship, she decided to leave me because everything was too much. I played the song a lot after that because I was asking myself too if I had a heart after all. It really helped to ease the pain.
    Only a few days later, we met again. She said I was right about her just escaping from the relationship because it was the easiest thing to do to reduce her problems. It changed or relationship for the better.
    Some time after that, in 2019, I took the chance and bought Nier: Automata in a steam sale to see what the fuzz was all about. And so far, most of the games I bought because Gavin made a great song about it, it was totally worth the money.
    So I was playing through Nier: Automata, my now-fiancée watching me play, enjoying the story together. Again and again we listened to the song and the more we knew the story, the more we understood the depth of the song and the true meaning of those words.
    Nier: Automata changed me (to a degree) and without you Gavin, I doubt I'd ever gave the game a shot. It changed me for the better, at least I think so. It was a unique experience and we both liked the game so much, we took a bit of it into our life. Our son, who is born in a few weeks, gets Emil as his middle name.
    All of those wonderful things thanks to you Gavin. This wasn't the first time your music helped me through hard times and I bet it won't be the last. A simple thank you is barely enough to describe what you mean to me, and many others as well.
    I love your art, your work is wonderful and I am grateful to be alive right now to listen to the amazing sounds you're enlighten the world with. Thank you.

      It's poetic in that the robots wish to be alive, to be human, and they are trapped in an endless cycle of conflict and suffering and have yet to realize that this is itself what it means to be human. That they are already human. And the only ones to realize this, they knew it would drive them all mad, so they fabricated this cyclical lie under the guise of service to a Humanity that no longer exists.

      Even though I stand by my opinion that the witcher 3 is the best game ever made, automata is definitely the best game of 2017

    This song so excellently captures the themes of this game. Listening to it gave me a cool rush of remembrance to my first time playing through the game. Bravo, Gavin, you have truly outdone yourself.
