The Urquan Destroyer Lyrics

[00:18.16] At the top of the hill they don't know their own strength
[00:45.10] Squeezing silver 'till the eagle screams
[00:54.17] Circulation is tortured and mutilated
[01:04.03] Deformed and bolted down in steel brackets
[01:13.16] When there's space between your gears,
[01:46.56] You move slow away from suffocation
[01:56.41] Oiled down it's meant to ride low
[02:17.20] Remember when you could live off dad
[02:17.53] in his mud castle at the bottom of the fault line
[02:47.02] Life-o-suction - fierce and hungry was to be the motto
[02:58.87] Building a revolution with toothpick and glue
[03:03.32] Now working the sore arm into a numb confusion of constant mode,
[03:07.83] Afflicting the muscle to further strengthen the dexterity of the worker
[03:20.44] You gotta let them be - senseless - penniless
[05:33.33] Everything they want you to be
[06:24.59] Melt your skin stunt your growth
[06:25.49]
