The stench of fear keeps crawling under the skin
It's breeding inside like cancer among flesh and bones
These cold dim eyes are staring out of dark holes
Once can see their mind is longing for something outside
We don't have the courage to leave this way
We are dying slow, we are dying slow
This yearning keeps burning
The cogwheels keep turning
There are no dreams left to fill this void
We are dying slow, we are dying slow
This yearning keeps burning
The cogwheels keep turning
Are we here by choice or for the want of possibilities?
Placed on the market, we are nothing but abbatoir waste
We don't have the courage to leave this way
We are dying slow, we are dying slow
This yearning keeps burning
The cogwheels keep turning
There are no dreams left to fill this void
We are dying slow, we are dying slow
This yearning keeps burning
The cogwheels keep turning
Get in line, just waiting for something
That's a concept we call hope
Get in line, just waiting for something
That's a concept we call hope
We drag ourselves to the grinder
The body is being severed from mind
