02.Built To Last
03.Wrench
04.Captains Of Industry
Mark these words and hear their truth
You mean nothing to me
Your handshakes to play fake make me want to scream
The engine runs harder than your lies never could
Than your lies ever could
Just to mark these words
What price do we pay for something that we give away?
To reclaim what we have lost
Never to be found [x2]
Thieves stealing the beating heart of our art
And trample it into dust
Like lifelines and hard times
There are enough to go around
Break the back of this slavery
We are nothing but cattles
Another sale in the marketplace
There’s enough to go around
What price do we pay for something that we give away?
To reclaim what we have lost
Never to be found [x2]
We disengage
Nothing left to say (nothing left to say)
To hold us down (nothing left to say)
To hold us down (we disengage)
What price do we pay for something that we give away?
To reclaim what we have lost
Never to be found [x2]
Behind closed doors we are building up our castles
And we wait to be saved behind these sheltered walls
Tell me who will be left to save us
When we can’t even save ourselves
Eyes of the innocent
The death of human spirit
A science of tragedies that we’ve let into our homes
And I will never close my eyes to what I see every day
And even if it kills me
I will never end up like them
Tell me who will be left to save us
When we can’t even save ourselves [x2]
A shell of a man
Bled of every sentiment
And all honesty and compassion
Destroyed in just one breath [x2]
I will never close my eyes to what I see every day
And even if it kills me
I will never end up like them
Tell me who will be left to save us
When we can’t even save ourselves [x2]
We look past the obvious
We blind ourselves to the truth
No escape
Resistance is futile
The old roads lead back home
A place where I belong
I lay my head where I lay my head
Affection without rejection
A clenched fist screaming
There’s pain and then there’s living
Both make sense to those who are willing
And there’s nothing left to say
We carry on
We carry on
Sacrifice every day
To make amends for the debt we pay
An instrument of constant struggle
There’s nothing left to regret
A promise is a promise kept
Whether history will forget
To open up with friendly arms
This wrench screaming
There’s pain and then there’s living
Both make sense to those who are willing
And there’s nothing left to say
We carry on
We carry on [x2]
We struggle every day
Never giving up or giving in
No single sense of self-respect
We turn around and walk away
No sense of community
We fear each and every day
Behind closed doors and closed minds
We shelter away from our lives
There’s pain and then there’s living
Both make sense to those who are willing
And there’s nothing left to say
We carry on
We carry on [x2]
We carry on
We carry on
We carry
We carry on
We kick the bucket and they drink us dry
Non essential work down on supply
We till the soil and work the fields
Another twenty years
My fingers bleed
You’ve gotta believe it
It’s gotta be seen to believed
A crisis of faith and and an honest mistake
It can break your resolve
This tattered life torn and despised
It can swallow you whole
At the mercy of this machine
Our price to pay
Our burden to bear
Taking liberties with an innocent lie
Just another cog in this infernal machine
Another fifty years for someone to see
You’ve gotta believe it
It’s gotta be seen to believed
A crisis of faith and and an honest mistake
It can break your resolve
This tattered life torn and despised
It can swallow you whole
At the mercy of their machine
We’re at the mercy of their machines
Shake hands (shake hands)
With the captains of industry [x4]
Shake hands with the captains of industry [x3]
