An artery cut will bleed til it's empty Seeing no one tend to the gaping wound So why watch this pool of blood rise When the scalpel is in their hands Rip out the corruption at the roots Where it's had a foothold for too long I can't remember the last time I closed my eyes and found peace There is no hope here This is the birth place of death The mind begins to unravel Claustrophobia, agoraphobia No comfort to quell these demons Just the soft glow of a portal below Turn the lights low, shelter your eyes Don't deviate beliefs With your blinders on, march forth Condemn what you can't understand You are the darkness living amongst man Peeling the layers of obfuscation back Enough to justify, not practice what you preach When you pray to god what do you say Killing in the name of a dead god I want to end the perception shown of our species Corrected nature driven instincts to believe In a false hope designed to keep us bound Never moving just working to stay above the ground But what the f*ck is the point You'll never be heard They will never listen to your plea Somehow you think they're on your team No one ever cares Not the soulless carrions of disease Yet you still believe their regurgitations You'll never be heard They will never listen to your plea Somehow you think they're on your team No one ever cares Not the soulless carrions of disease Yet you still believe their regurgitations No one will fight for you So why fight for them When the rug is pulled out Fall to your knees like you always do And then you stare in awe As this horrifying cycle repeats Just another casualty A casualty of neglect Just another casualty Of oppression The hive always swarms behind the queen Yet begging for freedom never seen Clinging to the promise of a time now lost As if it were a lucid dream Night descends upon us all in these dire times Screaming for help fallen on deaf ears We are nothing more than the pawns in their game A constant reminder of what they are Expendable We owe them nothing As the fissures grow deeper And the unknown becomes the known We will all be forgotten Only then will we be equals I can't say I'm surprised At the way the world reacts to inequality Something seemingly so simple Becomes a civil war Families beg for freedom to live Families beg for safety They don't have to come at a cost I won't stand by idly and watch My bloodline fall victim to them There's the line in the sand Dig the graves where I stand Let the fortunate pretend to suffer Let the rich step down from their kingdoms In the end, close the body bags Fill the graves where I stand There's no amount of expiation For humanity to give They cannot come back from this They don't deserve to live They continue to divide us While we fight for the scraps They continue to divide us Take up arms and fight back While we struggle to breathe They've been standing on our throats Our Lungs filled with hatred for each other The ouroboros continues to feed They continue to divide us While we fight for the scraps They continue to divide us They profit from the lives of the innocent Giving power to greed Monolithic faceless beings Blood oils their machine We won't ever rest While destruction screams Creation toils in silence This country is poison Soaked in the blood of indigenous The soil beneath our feet will give way We all slip into the abyss The ouroboros continues to feed On its tail forever wrapped around our lives The cycle will never end Cut off the head of the bastard snake And watch it bleed As the blood pours from its neck Vermin drown attempting to adjust to A new world and find another dividing line The head will grow back And when that day comes The ouroboros will feed again The ouroboros continues to feed The ouroboros continues to feed The ouroboros continues to feed The ouroboros continues to feed
