Lyrics
I reach a fresh patch, miner on the coal
Start to place it off, something takes control
Time starts to melt while placing drill and belt
Loving how accomplishment felt
They said build a rocket, head back home
But I've got other plans to hone
With every system I refine
I'm leaving home further behind
So, I guess I live here now
Where gears spin round and pistons pound
And miners pull ore from the ground
I guess I live here now
No rescue for me, can't you see?
This factory has set me free
There's nowhere else I want to be
From burners to reactors, a blaze so bright
Atomic dreams fuel my endless fight
I've evolved past the need for creature comfort, see
When I've got logistics robots attending to me
My blueprints spread like a silicon disease
Consuming resources for technological lease
Every fallen tree feeds my factory's haul
While pollution clouds my formal moral call
Who needs a ticket home when I can send
A thousand rockets 'round each bend
Each satellite's a data stream
Feeding my industrial dream
I think I live here now
Where gears spin round and pistons pound
And miners pull ore from the ground
I think I live here now
No rescue for me, can't you see?
This factory has set me free
There's nowhere else I want to be
Not a soul four miles around
Just machines worrying sound
My only friends are inserter hands
And bots that float across these lands
So, what will I do here all alone? Well
Optimizing copper flow
Balancing the ratio
Calculating inserter throw
Factory continues to grow
Biters breaking through my wall
Use artillery, watch them fall
Nuclear reactors tall
I'll industrialize it all
Science packs in red and green
Blue and purple rarely see
Yellow, white, my research dream
I'm running quite the regime
Started as a rescue mission
Ended in complete submission
To the factory's volition
Now I serve it ammunition
I know I live here now
Where gears spin round and pistons pound
And miners pull ore from the ground
I know I live here now
No rescue for me, can't you see?
This factory has set me free
There's nowhere else I want to be
Nowhere else I want to be
