Measuring Minutes


Feed the monster of obsession

Feed our monster of addiction

Feed the monster of our creation

 

Measure the hour

Measure the minute

Measure the death toll without any limit

 

Worship the god

Worship the master

Worship the moment that moves ever faster

 

Don't ever reject

Do not disobey

Do not question or ever delay

 

Never the master

Never the mage

Never leaving the ticking cage

 

Remain the puppets

Remain the slaves

Ignorant to those outside the caves

 

So measure the hour

Measure the minute

Measure the monster without any limit
