Graves At Sea - Minimum Slave lyrics

Conscious / A slave to the clock Bar codes / Lock down the machine Finger prints stripped / And left at the door Devour the fruit / And discard the core Begging for scraps / And learn how to sit Who demands for it anyway? Programmed / Return to the hive The only exit's when you're eaten alive Don't forget at the end of the day You're not cared for anyway Broken hopes / A sign of success Metal walls designed to suppress Graft the soul to the hand that feeds Calloused skin / A sign of production Collective purpose / Expanding the cell Metal walls / Encasing this hell The scent / Of fumes / Sickens me Shackled ankles never to be free White lights / Replace / The sky Uniformed and waiting to die Oppressed / Breathing despair Suffocate / Deficient of truth Pressure / Those who keep busy Emaciate / Positions down low Tendered / Just enough to survive Taxing / On body and mind Failure / To keep up the pace Promises to repair the failing body Expendable / Discard and replace Abandoned / In a useless state Decimation / In its wake Gears turn / Lumbering forward Alive / While in a grave Salt / The earth / Oil the machine Castrate / For display / Save the best cuts for last Conserve / The breath / Stay alive Morals / Tarnished / The ladder points up The weights / Too strong / Gravity pulls down Wings clipped / Eyes shut / Purgatory Awake / In regret / Beg for release A noose / Is the gate / Leading out
