Shoulder to the wheel,
C D A7
For someone else's selfish gain.

Here there is no choosing, working the clay.

Wearing their anger

Like a ball and chain.

Underneath the blazing sun.

Verse 2:
Waiting for the train,
Labeled with a golden star
Heavy hearted boarding, whispers in the dark
Where are we going?
Is it very far?
Bitter cold terrain,
Echoes of a slamming door.
Chambers made for sleeping, forever.
Voices like thunder,
In a mighty war.
Cry out to the Lord...
Chorus

And we drown in the wake of our power
G/F G/B...
Somebody tell me why
