lyrics

when they made room for the car parks
i guess they didn't care for art
who would bother to make those walls?
only to imprison us all?

what is it like to be the means?
treat people less than their machines?
this is a feeling, that's a fact
there is broken logic for that

it's a big job
but we are the mob
they're gonna know our numbers
teeth of the law have a broken jaw
feeling the ache of hunger
they're gonna know our numbers
when denominations fall

rippling like a lightning burst
a little spark has to be first
who would you rather hold the knife?
Already paying with your life

blame the kings who hang to their crowns
blame the liars who run the towns
There is enough to go around
or would you like to take them down?

it's a big job
but we are the mob
they're gonna know our numbers
trying to tell you
to your face value
not gonna have to wonder
they're gonna know our numbers
when denominations fall
