Lyrics Sacred - Amel Larrieux

Sacred

Is there nothing sacred anymore?
When celebrities are deified
And we’re still calling some countries third world
And crimes against little ones
Are punished with little laws
And girls are taught to hide their curves
As though they’re flaws
And other girls are taught to expose them but not own them
And boys are taught they can own it all
Is there nothing sacred anymore?
It’s the 21st century
And I still get followed around in stores
And governments are using our money for
Reasons other than what they say they’re using it for
And small countries fold as their big debt keeps on growing
And silent pain is golden under the guise of religion
And boys are taught that they can own it all
Is there nothing sacred anymore?
Well maybe there never was, at all
