Heartbeat lyrics

In the shadow of our industry
we constructed all these big machines
symbolizing what we want to be
superpowers of insanity

accepting all of this bureaucracy
content to be another wana be
obscured by all of this complexity
consumed as fuel for even bigger dreams

little voices saying please sign here
you know these children are too young my dear
and the endless sound of moving parts
replaced the rhythm of their straining hearts

while the wheels continue turning
we still believe in sold out learning
in the center are these blinded eyes
masked by a melted fire out of ice

answer finally came to me
inside a plastic strawberry
creeping through your cancered skin
remember that your life is a sin

lost like a heartbeat
we will never heat
caught by the house of coldness
we all fear
and in our blindness we can`t see
the ghost of all we used to be

in the daylight of our destiny
swimming in reflected vanity
so you smoke another cigarette
one more thing in life that you`ll regret

while the wheels continue turning
we still believe in sold out learning
in the center are these blinded eyes
masked by a melted fire out of ice

lost like a heartbeat
we will never hear
caught by the house of coldness
we all fear
and in our blindness we can`t see
the ghost of all we used to be
