[Intro]
The workers all march to the beat of the drum
Their spirits are broken, they have nowhere to run
[Verse 1]
They dream of courage and a loaded gun
But the slaves all know, they better bite their tongue
Track marks across the planet
Are there any veins left for them to infect?
They would kill one another just to disconnect
[Pre-Chorus]
Three cheers for desperation
God bless the godforsaken
We will arm them to the teeth
To fight, to fight the war on peace
[Chorus]
All love is lost, so carry the cross
'Cause there's no human in us left, we are music made for the deaf
They play a game that they know they'll never win
Sick and tired of the world they're living in
The messiah showed up high on heroin, on heroin
[Verse 2]
The workers all march to the beat of the drum
They fell into the trap, taken one by one
The medicine is poison, but it makes them numb
'Cause all that they feel is pain and regret
Existence is just something they would rather forget
[Pre-Chorus]
Three cheers for desperation
God bless the godforsaken
We will arm them to the teeth
To fight, to fight the war on peace
[Chorus]
All love is lost, so carry the cross
'Cause there's no human in us left, we are music made for the deaf
They play a game that they know they'll never win
Sick and tired of the world they're living in
The messiah showed up high on heroin, on heroin
[Bridge]
Is this freedom? Is this the life you chose?
If this is living the dream, we've hit an all-time low
[Chorus]
All love is lost, so carry the cross
'Cause there's no human in us left, we are music made for the deaf
They play a game that they know they'll never win
Sick and tired of the world they're living in
The messiah showed up high on heroin, on heroin

“Quite neggy on the title! It was a bit of an experiment, and we thought ‘If we don’t pull it off we can do it as a b-side’. Once we finished we knew it had to be on the album. I love how dark this song is. It’s got quite an industrial feel to it. It’s a wildcard for us.”
