Big Machine (ft bsides230)

[Verse 1] Heavy footsteps dragging down the street Shaking every window with a steady beat Cold armor wrapped around a hollow chest Never gives a warning, never takes a rest Glass eyes staring through a darkened pane Nothing feels the sorrow, nothing feels the pain Big machine rolling through the morning fog Treating every person like an iron cog [Chorus] Heavy tread shaking on the frozen ground Not a single whisper, not another sound Piston heart hammering inside the chest Never gonna stop, never gonna rest Built a monster out of dirty greed Doesn't care about a single mouth to feed Crush the spirit, wipe the conscience clean Nothing left living in the big machine [Verse 2] Rusted joints grinding on a crooked spine Watching every shadow on the border line Numb fingers clicking on a rusted trigger Making every monster look a little bigger Thick plates bolted to a crooked back Leaving broken gravel on the wagon track Swallow down the fire, choke upon the smoke Turn a living brother to a heavy yoke [Chorus] Heavy tread shaking on the frozen ground Not a single whisper, not another sound Piston heart hammering inside the chest Never gonna stop, never gonna rest Built a monster out of dirty greed Doesn't care about a single mouth to feed Crush the spirit, wipe the conscience clean Nothing left living in the big machine [Bridge] Cut the harness, drop the lead Walk away from what they feed Tear the collar off the skin Don't you let the iron in Rip it open, smash the plate I ain't carrying your weight [Guitar Solo / Heavy Breakbeat Breakdown] [Chorus] Heavy tread shaking on the frozen ground Not a single whisper, not another sound Piston heart hammering inside the chest Never gonna stop, never gonna rest Built a monster out of dirty greed Doesn't care about a single mouth to feed Crush the spirit, wipe the conscience clean Nothing left living in the big machine [Outro] Drop the lead Tear the plate Walking out the gate Gone
