Souls combined into a searing glow
The motor's burning up
Metal-on-metal you face the wrath
Compromising your life
Abandoned at the birth
Of the imperial fire,
Painstaking fear molts
As the metal consumes you
Breathe strong, Stand proud
Or be conquered by oppression
As dictators steal away your soul
Onward we march
Face-to-face in the burning oblivion,
Nothing left but uncertainty and shame
Embracing the unknown, embracing the shame
Onward we march.
