lyrics

There is something inside this machine
They are telling me that the world we know is all done
Behind the sounds of gears and the tools, you can hear them loud.
They are calling me to join the new rules of god

I don’t want to be a part of this.
The machine and the sacrifice for dawn.

Where are the chains around me?
What is this pain that binds me?
Where are you now? You’d keep me from the cold.

Where are the chains around me?
What is this pain that binds me?
It’s my turn to ask! Why did you left me alone?

It’s hard to sleep when you know it is hungry beneath the ground
Shackling, clock working gears waiting to be fed.

It is wonderful how tragedy focuses the mind. What else was I to do?
Fall into grief, pine and fade in my hopelessness? Why not then simply die in that jungle amongst those dead temples?
Your faith disturbs the vision, the superior, one and only future.
We require a new deity, one of steam, wheel, magnetism and progress.
The old god is nothing more than a clouded mind, spitting at the mankind.

Where are the chains around me?
What is this pain that binds me?
You want to know? Death smells cold.

Where are the chains around me?
What is this pain that binds me?
Why do you care? Machine takes all.

I’ll escape this nightmare, leaving all behind.
Hypocrite, false god, will make pigs of us all.
Where are the chains that keeps me working for the whole?
Inside the steam, the deity will fall.
