lyrics

VERSE 1

INDIVIDUALS LOOKED AT AS NUMBERS
WE ARE THE FOUNDATION OF THIS COLLAPSING SYSTEM
REGARDED AS RATS AND DIMINISHED TO SLAVES
WHO ARE THEY TO DECREE OUR EXERTION
THE PRODUCERS – SUBJECTED TO INEQUITY
THE CONSUMERS – BRANDED AS SWINE
THIS OPERATION IS SURREPTITIOUS
BUT NOTHING CAN BE DONE, FOR OUR WORD IS NEGLECTED

CHORUS 1

FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH CONSTRUCTED FROM THE DEPTHS OF HYPOCRISY
MONARCHS SIT ATOP THEIR THROWN AS THEIR DOMINIONS ARE RIPPED TO PIECES
THE GREED OF MEN CREATE THE HELL OF MANKIND
7 BILLION AND COUNTING, THE FREE WILL SOON BE NOTHING BUT NUMBERS

VERSE 2

WHAT HAVE WE DONE TO DESERVE THIS TREATMENT
UNTRAINED SOLDIERS THROWN INTO WAR
VOWS SPOKEN ONLY TO BE WRENCHED APART
THE SKY BURNS RED AS THEY PRAISE THEIR ADROITNESS
IDIOCRACY RULES OVER THE LANDS
UNSPOKEN AGREEMENTS LEAD TO THE INNOCENT ENSLAVED
DESPOTIC TYRANTS CAST LOTS FOR THE IMPRISONED
HUMANS ARE CATTLE CONTROLLED BY A REPETITIVE MACHINE

CHORUS 2

FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH CONSTRUCTED FROM THE DEPTHS OF HYPOCRISY
MONARCHS SIT ATOP THEIR THROWN AS THEIR DOMINIONS ARE RIPPED TO PIECES
THE GREED OF MEN CREATE THE HELL OF MANKIND
7 BILLION AND COUNTING, THE FREE WILL SOON BE NOTHING BUT NUMBERS

CHORUS 3

FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH CONSTRUCTED FROM THE DEPTHS OF HYPOCRISY
MONARCHS SIT ATOP THEIR THROWN AS THEIR DOMINIONS ARE RIPPED TO PIECES
THE GREED OF MEN CREATE THE HELL OF MANKIND
7 BILLION AND COUNTING, THE FREE WILL SOON BE NOTHING BUT NUMBERS
