                                           E5  C5  G5 A5 E5  C5  G5 A5
To the sound of a heartbeat pounding away

                                           E5  C5  G5 A5 E5  C5  G5 A5
To the rhythm of the awful rusted machines

A5
We toss and turn but don't sleep

A5
Each breath we take makes us thieves

C5
Like causes without rebels

D5
Just talk but promise nothing else
[Chorus 1]
E5         G5               D5          A5
  We crawl on our knees for you under a sky no longer blue

E5         D5               A5          C5
  We sweat all day long for you

E5           G5              D5                      A5
  But we sow seeds to see us through cause sometimes dreams just don't come true

E5           D5               A5          C5
  We wait to reap what we are due
E5 C5 G5 A5 x5 [Verse 2]
                                           E5  C5  G5 A5 E5  C5  G5 A5
To the rhythm of a time bomb ticking away

                                                 E5  C5  G5 A5 E5  C5  G5 A5
And the blare of the sirens combing the streets

A5
Chased down like dogs we run from

A5                    B5 C5
Your grasp until the sun comes up
[Chorus 2]
E5         G5               D5          A5
  We crawl on our knees for you under a sky no longer blue

E5         D5               A5          C5
  We sweat all day long for you

E5           G5              D5                      A5
  But we sow seeds to see us through cause sometimes dreams just don't come true

E5            D5                    A5          C5
  Look now at what they've done to you
[Verse 3]
B5                          D5
White needles buried in the red

                             C5
The engine roars and then it gives

          D5
But never dies

               E5
Cause we don't live

           B5
We just survive

       C5              D5     E5 G5 D5 A5 E5 D5 A5 C5
On the scraps that you throw away
[Verse 4]
E5              G5              D5                      A5
  I won't crawl on my knees for you I won't believe the lies that hide the truth

E5              D5                A5          C5
  I won't sweat one more drop for you

E5                G5             D5
 Cause we are the rust upon your gears

           A5             E5
We are the insect in your ears

        D5        A5        C5
We crawl, We crawl, We crawl, All over you
[Outro 2]
E5           G5              D5                   A5
  We sow the seeds to see us through our days are precious and so few

E5       D5               A5          C5
  We all reap what we are due

E5           G5            D5                 A5
  Under this sky no longer blue we bring the dawn long overdue

E5        D5        A5        C5         E5
  We crawl, We crawl, We crawl, All over you
