Growing up at a hundred miles per hour
Relentless pursuit of absolute power
Engines of progress full steam ahead
Ranting and raving while being force fed
Deafening sounds of machines humming
Fury and pace of people running
Endless noise of the blood pumping clock
Flash of the lights pulsating nonstop
Tear down these walls Its progress we can have it all
Infrastructure falls Its progress that's what we call it
Traditions are erased Gone without a trace
Take me back to simpler times and simpler ways
Simpler Days
Round and round spinning our wheels
Into the ground the grinding of the drills
No time for family No time for rest
Got to work quick make the world a mess
Relief is nowhere to be seen
Foreclosure of the American dream
Domino theory takes hold
Our future has been bought and sold
Biding our time
Our chances slip away
Being done in
By devices we create
Twisting-Turning resources burning for our conveniency
Pulling-Ripping out stitching that fuses our families
Fighting-lying we are dying harm that cannot be undone
Breaking-Bending here's the ending were writing our own requiem

Lyrics by 98 Mute
A. C. A. B. Another Boring Day Answers Ask Yourself Beauty Queen Better Days Ahead Breakdown Bullet for You Cosmetic Plague Could This Be Count on Me Crack Don't Don't Dreams Election Year Fair Game Fight of Your Life Great Expectations Ground Zero Growing Old Hangman Hit You Back How Do You Feel Now? If We Quit It's Your Move Its Your Move Judge and Jury Last Laugh M.A.D. Never Forget Not Enough Open Your Eyes Painkiller Perfect Sense Picture This Same Old Song and Dance Send in the Clowns Shine Short Fuse Slander Slow Motion Riot Small Minds Survive Them They Say True to Yourself Ultimate High Watch Over Me Where Did It All Go Wrong Where Did It All Go Wrong? Wounds Wrong You Can't Lose You Can't Lose Young Americans
