The Basement Engineer letra

The basement engineer inventor
If there’s free speech he believes truth will prevail
Blind to the movements of the emperor
In his palace made of glass he thumbs the scale

Watch his dead eyes open
As the rats come to feed
Angry words are spoken
Someday someone’s gonna bleed
