Song lyrics

To the sound of a heartbeat pounding away,
To the rhythm of the awful rusted machines
We toss and turn but don't sleep,
Each breath we take makes us thieves,
Like causes without rebels
Just talk, but promise, nothing else

We crawl on our knees for you
Under a sky no longer blue,
We sweat all day long for you.
But we sow seeds to see us through,
Cause sometimes dreams
just don't come true,
We wait to reap what we are due.

To the rhythm of a time bomb ticking away
And the blare of the sirens combing the streets,
Chased down like dogs we run from
Your grasp until the sun comes up

We crawl on our knees for you
Under a sky no longer blue,
We sweat all day long for you.
But we sow seeds to see us through,
Cause sometimes dreams
just don't come true,
Look now at what they've done to you.

White needles buried in the red,
The engine roars and then it gives
But never dies
Cause we don't live, we just survive
On the scraps that you throw away

I won't crawl on my knees for you,
I won't believe the lies
that hide the truth,
I won't sweat one more drop for you.
Cause we are the rust upon your gears,
We are the insect in your ears,
We crawl, we crawl,
We crawl... all over you

We sow the seeds to see us through,
Our days are precious and so few,
We all reap what we are due.
Under this sky no longer blue,
We bring the dawn long over-due,
We crawl, we crawl,
We crawl... all over you!
