[Verse 1]

Nailed to the cross by just words

Crucifixion complete

Close enough to the fire

To feel temptation's heat


[Pre-Chorus]

It's gone away to taste the ground

Replaced by the incessant sound

Of fear


[Verse 2]

There's a ring in my ears

I'm bleeding from my heart

Far away from love

The execution starts


[Pre-Chorus]

Made us what we are today

A lonely pile of disarray


[Chorus]

We are the children of a new regime

We are the children of a new machine


[Interlude]


[Refrain]

Power, power

Power

Power, power

Power

Power


[Verse 3]

Mass production, thought controlled

No, I never knew my heart

No, never knew the love

That made them fall apart


[Pre-Chorus]

It's gone away to taste the ground

Replaced by the incessant sound

We hear


[Chorus]

We are the children of a new regime

We are the children of a new machine

We are the children of a new regime

We are the children of a new machine


[Outro]

We are the children

Yeah, the children

What of the children?

We are the children of the new machine

What of the children?

We are the children of the new machine

The new machine...

The new machine...

The new machine...
