Progress? that's just regression
technology? that's nothing new
"advance!" you scream insanely
"advance"? from this to what?
[chorus:]
and every time you smile i smell decay, killer!
your empty eyes stare, cold and grey, look at that face!
Machinery (master?), we're all expendable
it's just so obvious, it's more dependable
this progress will mean a number
branded to your skin
They lead you to your slaughter
like they lead a horse to water
they can't force you to drink
but you do!
