Lyrics
Blood in the mortar
The pestle grinds down our bones
Death paves the way
For our fates are set in stone
Sacrifice
All of your being
Our bodies, the fuel
For this sick, sick machine
Lay your body down
In every age, the story remains the same
Scorch the earth and deflect all the blame
All for themselves, leave the rest of us behind
The vile maxim of the masters of mankind
Lay your body down
On the altar of progress
Sustain the wealth
Sublimate the self
No chance to survive
With the hand you've been dealt
Lay your body down
The noose is tightening
It's tightening around our necks
Work your fingers to the bone
Until nothing's left
Keep building and building
And build some more
Never asking yourself
What the fuck for?
