The machine screams as it gets into motion Steel on steel generate a painful roar The furnace heat slowly starts to burn my skin Just another day, another day in this life There is only heat, scrap, dirt, dust and pain Sweat is the only thing I am allowed to lessen my thirst I know my world is dying We all know my world is dying To make sure I get to live their life must be the first to give Have I been here too long The clockwork rhythm of the machine they speak to me about death whispers that call me to act Trying not to dissociate myself from reality Resisting their command will be the death of me I know my world is dying We all know my world is dying To make sure I get to live their life must be the first to give Their life must be the first to give Another dead found half burning in the furnace Another crushed by the hammer instead of steel Another decapitated by the clockwork wheels Another accident awaiting to happen They are the sacrifice for the machine Their hunger soothed they return to rest Next time when they speak I will resist It's their push that I detest I know my world is dying We all know my world is dying To make sure I get to live Their life must be the first to give Their life must be the first to give In the end it controls me
