Carcass Arbeit Macht Fleisch Lyrics

Arbeit Macht Fleisch Lyrics

Prognathous gears grind

So diligent and serrated they mesh

Toothed cogs churn

So trechant, against soft flesh

Worked to the bone

Up to the hilt, depredated

Raw materialism

To stoke the furnaces

Toiling, rotting

Life slowly slips away

Consumed, inhumed

In this mechanized corruption line

By mincing machinery industrialised - pulped and pulverised

Enslaved to the grind



Blood, sweat, toil, tears

Arbeit macht frei/fleisch



Grave to the grind



Inimitable gears twist

To churn a living grave

Stainless cogs shredding

Scathing pistons bludgeon and flail

Stripping to the bone

Retund mandrels levigate

Just raw material

Your pound of flesh for the suzerain

Toiling, rotting

Life slowly dissipates

Consumed, inhumed

In a corruption line, mechanized

By mincing machinery, industrialized - crunched and brutalised

A grave to the blind
