The Big Machine - Lyrics - Pain Of Salvation

Pain of Salvation is a Swedish progressive metal rock band led by Daniel GildenlÃ¶w, who is the band's main songwriter, lyricist, guitarist, and vocalist. Pain of Salvation's sound is characterised by riff-oriented guitar work, a broad vocal range, oscillation between heavy and calm passages, syncopation, and polyrhythms. Thus far, every album released by the band has been a concept album. Lyrically, the band tends to address contemporary issues, such as sexuality, war, the environment, and the nature of God, humanity, and existence.

Welcome inside the machine It hurts Go numb, go blind One's drilling out a pipe One adjusts the aim One makes trigger parts Weapons as a game All trapped in killing routine Washed clean By this machine On these grey walls Lovely pictures of the weapons we produce But not their actions All are part of the big machine We do our job "Guilty!" But what if we save? And what if we solve? And what if we build? And what What if we lose control? What if we lose control? What if we lose control? What if we lose control? I am just a wheel And what if we stop?
