Watch your step
The factory is hazardous
And the maximum capacity's
Inadequate
This isn't even half of it
Broken dreams
Dark corners
Law & order's
Not important
Everything you once were
Is being torn asunder
Start it over
Change to a new name
Cause everyone is two-faced
Need I communicate
To the slave?
Never pay attention to the signs saying
Work is freedom
Need to learn to
Speak in turn
Cause you know you can't beat em
Enough
You know it's not very much
To stay silent, covering up
Your shame, that you're wearing cuffs
Cause you know, you have had enough
Test out your knowledge now
You are never getting out
How does it feel
To know your life's on my shoulders –
Getting older
Many died from the one
Assembly line
Every time's a
Steady climb
Let me try to
Clarify
You are not a
Human being
You are just a number
For the daily grind
Just another
Deadly life
When were yellin “left”
We don't have a right
Satellites
Tracking on the
Ankle brace
Can't escape
Don't look up
Cause she's watching every move
Lock you in a bitter room
Difficult to misconstrue
Pitiful and ridiculed
By the foreman and her crew
Now conforming to the group
Cause you swore to tell the truth
And the punishment has come to this
Eternal servitude
Make a weapon
So you can protect yourself
And sleep at night
Never knowing
Who is gonna
Find a way
To seize your life
I don't know –
If you want to think to walk alone
There's lots of un-
Known places
Closed chambers
Prostrated
Won't make it
If you don't take this
To the heart
You might end up
So lost
Your hole's graveless
No traces
They won't make a statement
Enough
You know it's not very much
To stay silent, covering up
Your shame, that you're wearing cuffs
Cause you know, you have had enough
Test out your knowledge now
You are never getting out
How does it feel
To know your life's on my shoulders –
Getting older
Silence
When I walk through my rounds
Your head, better be facing down just
Let me give you a warning
Or there will be no morning
You can't see it, but you know I've got my gun
I'll smile, wide to everyone
But you know never to look up
I'm your Medusa
Quiet
You don't want to say it
When she's gonna make a round
And anything you say
Is like a thunder sound
So put the cover down when
The lights are going out
Or you might get a clout cause
Nothing's ever mightier than power
That's inside of here so never
Show a sign of fear
And always hide-insecure-
Ties-
That you don't want to see cause
Only the weak are getting
Left in the heat I'll
Bet you'll agree with
The rest of the team –
Nobody here is the
Best in the league
Cause you get shot down
With her weapon demean
Waterboard drown
Won't let you breathe
Car battery
And shocked to fatigue
Cigarette burns that
Scar till you bleed, don't
Try to intercede
Cause you won't be appeased
So
Try to stay away from being
Close to the queen
I don't want to see another
Fed to the beast
Nothing on the plate, no hopes, no dreams
If you got a reason-to-laugh then please
Keep it to yourself
Cause we got no games
So much shame
And we rot our brains
Locked in chains
All in vain
Earn no wage
Burn that page saying
Wait for the date
That our day is saved cause I
Haven't felt warmth
In a course of weeks while the
More she beats like a
Horse or a steed
I implore you to eat
Cause she will force feed
For the work for free
Like interning
But-no-ladder-
To climb or see
So mind your deeds
Time to leave
Rise at dawn
Watch your guard –
Shh and
Try to sleep
Enough
You know it's not very much
To stay silent, covering up
Your shame, that you're wearing cuffs
Cause you know, you have had enough
Test out your knowledge now
You are never getting out
How does it feel
To know your life's on my shoulders –
Getting older
