Waiting for the flood, we know it's coming
The grease on the gears, ever turning
The millions that never cry
The billions with half closed eyes
A trillion will never try, and the masses still multiply
Yet today, I break away
We're drowning in words and no one listens
Living this curse with no remission
With nothing never tried before
This tune you may have heard before
These words have all been said before
By greater men who stand no more
Waiting for the flood, we know it's coming
The grease on the gears, ever turning
The millions that never cry
The billions with half closed eyes
A trillion will never try, and the masses still multiply
Yet today, I break away
We're drowning in words and no one listens
Living this curse with no remission
With nothing never tried before
This tune you may have heard before
These words have all been said before
By greater men who stand no more
