Fading pictures in a desert's heat Of a world that died so long ago Long lost forgotten dreams And broken heroes died in the fields Blood's preventing them from rust We were crushed by the wheels
In bloodless times Obey the machines With every breath Hail the machines
Life in agony under the spell Live and die -- To be reborn Reborn in hell
Ancient scrolls have turned to dust Lonely preachers lost their trust Metalian deities Feed on human daily sacrifice Beyond those leaden clouds They die with open eyes
Life in agony under the spell The time won't tell no more tales Pain and agony -- Bearing the spell Live and die -- Only to be reborn Reborn in hell
