To the sound of a heartbeat pounding away
|
|
|
|
To the rhythm of the awful rusting machines
|
|
We toss and turn but don't sleep
|
|
Each breath we take makes us thieves
|
|
Like causes without rebels
|
|
Just talk but promise nothing else
|
|
|
|
We crawl on our knees for you
|
|
Under a sky no longer blue
|
|
We sweat all day long for you
|
|
But we sow seeds to see us through
|
|
'Cause sometimes dreams just don't come true
|
|
We wait to reap what we are due
|
|
|
|
To the rhythm of a time bomb ticking away
|
|
And the blare of the sirens combing the street
|
|
Chased down like dogs we run from
|
|
Your grasp until the sun comes up
|
|
|
|
We crawl on our knees for you
|
|
Under a sky no longer blue
|
|
We sweat all day long for you
|
|
But we sow seeds to see us through
|
|
'Cause sometimes dreams just don't come true
|
|
Look now at what they've done to you
|
|
|
|
White needles buried in the red
|
|
The engine roars and then it gives
|
|
But never dies
|
|
'Cause we don't live
|
|
We just survive
|
|
On the scraps that you throw away
|
|
|
|
I won't crawl on my knees for you
|
|
I won't believe the lies that hide the truth
|
|
I won't sweat one more drop for you
|
|
'Cause we are the rust upon your gears
|
|
We are the insect in your ears
|
|
We crawl...
|
|
We crawl...
|
|
We crawl all over you!
|
|
|
|
We sow seeds to see us through
|
|
Our days are precious and so few
|
|
We all reap what we are due
|
|
Under this sky no longer blue
|
|
We bring a dawn long overdue
|
|
We crawl...
|
|
An' we crawl...
|
|
An' we crawl all over you!
