Heirs of Sisyphos Songtext
von Hedera

Calm before
The beast devours us again
Sinking iron fangs
Cracking bones
In the mill′s pace

Lost we are
Cursed to suffer here eternally
Purgatory becoming all too real
The cogs keep turning
As the furnace burns our hopes and dreams
Exhaustive dissolution

Cursed we are
Rowing the galley up Acheron
And the stream takes us back down
We are the heirs of Sisyphos


Monotonous rattle
The chains won't sway
A hopeless battle
Against death and decay
The machines won′t stop
For our feeble flesh
Torn to shreds
By the whip of the foreman
Undignified
And now we dwell on the brink of Hades
Hoping that the ferry is complete
Human shells, beaten soulless
Facing our god's deceit

Deafening
Pounding of machines
Rhythm of the damned
No variation
Manufacturing
A darker future
Monotonous pulse
Reaping lives

And the cogs turn
Relentlessly
And the furnace burns
Our hopes and dreams
And we work
Everyday
And we work
Until we die
