lyrics

Locusts enclosed in a farm
wasting all the food they have
We did not think about the future
but future is coming now

Clean the land, just kill it all
Scratch the ground until it's bald
Fill some wallets with their lives
and let’s pretend that we're not
slaves

There are machines
there are machines
everywhere
Cutting the trees
there are machines
we don't care
Everyone is drowning
in their own anesthesia

Watching tv,
new bigger screen,
internet
Go buy a new ship
and empty the sea
take the dare
Destroying, destroying
destroying, destroying
destroying

Stop begging loud
because no god
is going to save us now
not this time

Guess who's got the greatest car
Now he's like the superstars
It only wastes two tons of gas
but all in all is what we are

There are machines
there are machines
everywhere
Cutting the trees
there are machines
we don't care
Everyone is drowning
in their own anesthesia

Here comes the end
here comes the end
don't you see
Here comes the end
mix of scare
with ecstasy.
Hypocrites, corrupts
are praying for redemption

There are machines,
there are machines
everywhere
Killing the seas,
deadly disease
we’re aware
Everyone forgot this,
we've got massive amnesia

Here comes the end,
there are machines
don't you see
There are machines,
here comes the end,
everywhere
Destroying, destroying
destroying, destroying
destroying

Stop begging loud
because no god
is going to save us now
not this time

Stop begging loud
because no god
is going to save us now
not this time
