The Machine

Toil and sweat, you’d better pay the piper
No regrets, not now or in the life ever after
Bitter smile, you’re there’s for a while
Adding more to this ever growing machine
Fixated master, staring deep into your eyes
Nothing matters, as long as you pay the price
They own your soul, they’re swallowing you whole
You’re adding more to this ever growing machine
Death dealer, soul stealer
You’re no healer, you’re no good at all
Life taker, money maker
You’re no savior, you’re no good at all
…You’re a slave to all that you own
You’d better forget, this world you thought you knew
You owe a debt, freedom’s just an idea for you
Working each day, ‘til your life fades away
You’re adding more to this ever growing machine
Money and power, selfishness and their greed
Building their towers, while the starving still need
Red, white, and grey, they threw our freedoms away
You’re adding more to this ever growing machine
Death dealer, soul stealer
You’re no healer, you’re no good at all
Life taker, money maker
You’re no savior, you’re no good at all
…You’re a slave to all that you own
I used to believe, I listened to all of your lies
I know I’ve been deceived, my faith has wiltered and died
You stutter in speech, you won’t practice what you preach
You’re adding more to this ever growing machine
The look in your eyes, is an indication of fear
You know your lies, are the cause of so many tears
The sweat on your brow, can’t save your soul now
You’re adding more to this ever growing machine
Death dealer, soul stealer
You’re no healer, you’re no good at all
Life taker, money maker
You’re no savior, you’re no good at all
…You’re a slave to all that you own
