I am the sledgehammer messiah
Waiting for sins to be born
And if you stop for a moment
You can hear the machines
Are playing your song
There's nowhere to run
And there's nowhere to speak
I'm gaining, you're falling into me
Tell me you piece of shit
How does it feel
To be down here with me?
Living, living
Dreaming, dreaming
Drowning! (Drowning!)
Chainheart machine
By cosmic retribution I've been sent
Cause I'll rise, I'll rise
You'll fall, you'll fall
Roll the dice, roll the dice
My call, my call
Tick tock, time to die
No use reaching as time goes by
Self absorbed egoistical... fuck!
I'm reigning your life!
Chainheart machine
By cosmic retribution I've been sent
Cause I'll rise, I'll rise
You'll fall, you'll fall
Roll the dice, roll the dice
My call, my call
Preaching for the sun
They say there, they say there is a sun
So I'm preaching, I'm preaching for the sun
They say there, they say there is a sun
My body is chained to
The ground where I walk
They stalk, they hunt
My every thought with
Execution, evolution
Disillusion, pre-conclusion
Why is it me?
Chainheart machine
Your suffering will be
Legendary, even in hell!
Cause I'll rise, I'll rise
You'll fall, you'll fall
Roll the dice, roll the dice
My call, my call
Cause I'll rise, I'll rise
You'll fall, you'll fall
Roll the dice, roll the dice
My call, my call
