[Verse 1]
Nailed to the cross by just words
Crucifixion complete
Close enough to the fire
To feel temptation's heat

[Pre-Chorus]
It's gone away to taste the ground
Replaced by the incessant sound
Of fear

[Verse 2]
There's a ring in my ears
I'm bleeding from my heart
Far away from love
The execution starts

[Pre-Chorus]
Made us what we are today
A lonely pile of disarray

[Chorus]
We are the children of a new regime
We are the children of a new machine

[Interlude]
[Refrain]
Power, power
Power
Power, power
Power
Power

[Verse 3]
Mass production, thought controlled
No, I never knew my heart
No, never knew the love
That made them fall apart

[Pre-Chorus]
It's gone away to taste the ground
Replaced by the incessant sound
We hear

[Chorus]
We are the children of a new regime
We are the children of a new machine
We are the children of a new regime
We are the children of a new machine

[Outro]
We are the children
Yeah, the children
What of the children?
We are the children of the new machine
What of the children?
We are the children of the new machine
The new machine...
The new machine...
The new machine...
