i am the rock on which you can stand
the sheep, my flock, obey my every command
they fear the dark, i comfort them with words that still
i'll get us through the gates, now be sure to pass the till
and i don't know if i'm lying or if a do believe
it's hard to describe what i'm trying to acheive
but full speed ahead
the engine's running strong
the needle's in the red
right where it belongs
with loose belts and soft brakes
we will do what it takes
and we cannot slow down
so it's full speed ahead
for those that want to live forever
here is the treasure that you seek
strengthening the herd
by killing of the sick and the weak
for those that want to make it better
you should take this to heart
we've got it so pieced together
that it cannot be taken apart
now we're sailing off to find a distant shore
i can't remember what it is we're searching for
