XX (City Grave) |
| This injustice renders my thoughts ineffectual |
| Forgive me, Lover, and forget my sullen face |
| Privilege brings us to this place |
| Of human currencies |
| Buried our sisters in a glass display |
| Only to evaporate to a toxic skyline |
| Underneath we sell off the bodies |
| My body became a graveyard where they buried thirsty souls |
| Show me your righteous leader, I’ll show you the bullet holes |
| The preacher with the parched tongue and the «God» that he controls |
| «Shake off the sin, shake off the sin» and spit out your cacophony of lies |
| I’ll climb through your screen |
| And bleed out the image you left in me |
| But God, are you man? |
| Then how do you see me from where you sit up in heaven? |
| Looking down on my hell, my body chokes back |
| «I have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep |
| Where can I get living water?» |
| Enslaved in the «Land of the Free», my prison is our wedding bed |
| Where you left me for dead, you’ll leave us for dead |
| Apathy was our anchor to a digital sea |
| Where you drown in the comfort of our complicity |
| Can love save me? |
| Will Your wrath avenge us? |
