CAPTION
Industrial anthem of collapse and defiance, "Atlas Shrugged" echoes Rand's vision of freedom crushed under collectivist decay.

"Atlas Shrugged" is an industrial anthem that channels the dystopian collapse of innovation and individual freedom under oppressive collectivism, echoing the central themes of Ayn Rand’s novel through vivid imagery of decay and defiance.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


[Verse 1]
Steel clouds choke the skyline, innovation turned to rust
Empty rails and silent engines, silver plunges into dust
Bureaucrats with hungry hands, decrees like iron chains
Choking out the fire - only stillness now remains
Promises of fairness spiral into lies
In the name of "for the people," see a free world die

[Pre-Chorus]
"I swear by my life and my love of it
I'll never be a pawn in your crusade"
"The achievement of your happiness is the only moral purpose in your life," she said
Now the mind is shackled, and the world decays instead

[Chorus: vocal harmonies male and female parts]
Atlas shrugged, and the pillars broke
Dreams deprived of reason, engines, hearts, and hope
Atlas shrugged, let the world collapse
When all creation’s punished, what’s left but empty maps?

[Verse 2]
Assembly lines are gravesites, every bright idea annulled
The reckless hands of envy turn tomorrow into cold
Laws written on your freedoms, erased by someone's pen
No wealth but what they ration - no "how," only "when"
Blank-faced resignation, mountains sinking low
When greatness is forbidden, how far will loss go?

[Pre-Chorus]
"Wealth is the product of man’s capacity to think" - Ayn Rand
Yet every thought’s a target, in this gluttonous command
But contradictions cannot exist - they force us to pretend
A market drowned in edicts always breaks in the end

[Chorus]
Atlas shrugged, and the sky cracked wide
Vision is condemned and the able forced to hide
Atlas shrugged, as they drained us dry
They outlawed the strong, left a world asking "why?"

[Bridge]
You call it justice when value is destroyed
Progress traded, truth evaded, destiny denied
But somewhere in the silence, the minds still burn with pride
They vanished from your kingdom - see now what survives!

[Chorus]
Atlas shrugged, feel the silence roar
No engine left to save you, no riches at your door
Atlas shrugged - now the lesson’s taught:
Oppression breeds collapse; freedom can’t be bought
