Embracing the lairs
While building empires
Chosen self righteous scum
Cheering the powers
Erecting the towers
Blotting out the sun
We play the game
And it always remains the same
We are the pawns of progress
The sacrificial batteries
Wake up
Wake up
Plugged into the machine
Spending life reaching
For what slips through the greed
Lying to ourselves
Destroying our health
To please the masters we must feed
We play the game
And it always remains the same
We are the pawns of progress
The sacrificial batteries
We play the game
And it always remains the same
We are the pawns of progress
The sacrificial batteries
We are the pawns
