Lyrics
We are living in a time
But Time don?t really care
If we?re young or old
He just knows the fact
That he always will be there
And the seconds climb the night
And the stars roll out of sight
And you?re breathing, you?re breathing, you?re breathing!
Do I have the strength to be me
Do you have the strength to be you
Do we have the strength to be free
Or will this train roll over you
The dead train, the dead train, the dead train
The train of the living dead train
The dead train, the dead train
The train of the living?
You?re either master or you?re slave
You either rule or your depraved
(the will to power, what Neitzsche said, the Overman says God is dead)
But our fate is not to fear
With a hand that crushes God
We have only got to become
Everything that?s who we are
